High quality medical, including medevac, coverage is quite cheap, particularly if one considers that Medevac from JNB to DFW will run in the $200K range. Other expenses might be spending 30 days in a hotel because one is out of the hospital, but can't fy, having a companion fly over, and the logistics of setting something up which one knows nothing about.Bear i

Bear in mind that flying at high altitude with a recent fracture (in a cast) may not be in the cards so even a relatively simple broken ankle may mean spending some number of days with little to do other than pay for room service.
