The consulate can provide them with advice about repatriation, but they do not assist financially. Yes, it can be $10k or more. Some credit cards offer insurance that covers repatriation, as do a lot of travel insurance policies. Upthread I posted a link to the Consulate's repatriation information. I'll see if I can dig it up again.

You are absolutely right! That was excellent information. Thank you.
I was just speaking about potential options.
I would not know about any of it, but it sadly happened to my family and friends twice.
Just trying to help, if possible.
