How to get healthcare when your country doesn't provide it for you

After living our entire lives in a country that doesn't provide adequate healthcare for all citizens, and where the healthcare system is devised to profit by rejecting sick people, my wife and I are moving to a country that provides great healthcare to ALL of its people. We're Americans moving to Costa Rica. We bought travel insurance, for around 500 bucks, which covers many accidents and the cost of travel back home (up to $500,000). We also bought the cheapest Blue Shield we could for about $100 a month total (nine months) for the two of us. Between these two measures, we are hoping to have some peace of mind for $1400 -- if something terrible happens, we know we won't go bankrupt when we return home.
