· Payment of hospital and other expenses is the responsibility of the traveler.

· Very few health insurance companies will pay for your medical evacuation back to the United States.

· Medical evacuation can easily cost $10000 and up.

· Medicare does not provide coverage outside the U. S

Plus medical information for American cruising/traveling abroad*

If an American citizen becomes seriously ill or injured abroad, a U. S consular officer can assist in locating appropriate medical services and informing family or friends. If necessary, a consular officer can also assist in the transfer of funds from the United States. However payment of hospital and other expenses is the responsibility of the traveler.

Before going abroad, learn what medical services your health insurance will cover overseas. If your health insurance policy provides coverage outside the United States, REMEMBER to carry both your insurance policy identity card as proof of such insurance and a claim form. Although many health insurance companies will pay “customary and reasonable” hospital costs abroad, very few will pay for your medical evacuation back to the United States. Medical evacuation can easily cost $10,000 and up, depending on your location and medical condition.

Please note: The Social Security Medicare Program Does Not Provide Coverage For Hospital Or Medical Costs Outside The U. S.A
