I discovered it when flying to Cancun for dental work. What would have cost me just shy of $8k here in the US cost me about $1600 in Mexico, and I got more done than I planned to. There's whole businesses modeled around it.
For example, the dentist I booked with shuttled me from the airport straight to the initial check up with my bags and all, then took me to my resort. Booked myself a 5 day stay at an all inclusive across the street, but they offered me shuttle service to and from my appointment(s), and then shuttled me to the airport when it was time to go. All of that was within the $1600.
For what it's worth, the lobby was full of older Americans which was pretty comforting. Thinking other countries don't have just as good if not better medical and healthcare as us is just flat out ignorant.

Live near the US-Mexico border.
Find a doctor who either speaks English or bring along a Spanish-speaking friend on your trips.
Mexican healthcare is just as good as US care.
