Health care issues while RV'ing

Transport to a 'good hospital' is available from just about anywhere in the US including Alaska.

Well, Alaska isn't too bad really. The Alaska Highway was more scary (no cell reception and huge distances). The US has fantastic infrastructure - one of many reasons why it's our favorite travel destination - but with some places it would take hours even for paramedics to get to you. I love the distances and the emptiness of these areas but yeah, a bit worried too.

But yeah, I agree it's better to be out there and live life to the fullest - taking the risks is better than sitting at home out of fear. That would be a bit like dying while you're still alive. I'm all for going out there - just trying to mitigate some risks by getting good advice from the wonderful people in this community.
