There are a number of problems in relocating to USA as you are close to 
death.

They include
1. Airlines don't like taking terminally ill patients
2. Terminally ill patients don't like to be transported
3. The USA don't like accepting terminally ill foreigners
4. Friends and relatives don't like having their dying relatives whisked 
away to a foreign country
5. Do you have any idea of what a moth worth of health care costs for a 
terminally ill foreigner in USA?

These are just the first five reasons I could think of.

It isn't an option unless there is a compelling reason AND you have a good 
friend who is willing to give up their life for the duration (they have to 
arrange everything before the trip and then stay with you until you are 
dead).

I know.  I have done it.
