MEDICARE FYI FOR US EXPATS

Check out your supplemental coverage! Mine advised I was covered while vacationing, as long as I wasn't out of country for more than 6 months, for emergency treatment! Since we have home here and Arizona, non issue! We pay cash here for emergency treatment, and submit for reimbursement! Just an FYI, before you waste money on Mexican insurance, New York life, AXA, Allianz, etc,

Are you talking about Medicare Part B or a separate Medicare Advantage Plan?

In Arizona I signed up for Health Net. There is no charge, however there are Copays, with a maximum out of pocket of $6000.00 annually, including prescriptions.
