Medicare Coverage Outside the United States This fact sheet explains coverage under Original Medicare. Medicare coverage outside the United States is limited. In most situations, Medicare won’t pay for health care or supplies you get outside the U.S. The term “outside the U.S.” means anywhere other than the 50 states of the U.S., the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, Guam, American Samoa, and the Northern Mariana Islands. This fact sheet explains some of the exceptions that would allow you to get coverage outside the U.S. under Original Medicare Part A (Hospital Insurance) and/or Medicare Part B (Medical Insurance). When does Medicare cover health care services in a foreign hospital? There are 3 situations when Medicare may pay for certain types of health care services you get in a foreign hospital (a hospital outside the U.S.): 1. You’re in the U.S. when you have a medical emergency, and the foreign hospital is closer than the nearest U.S. hospital that can treat your illness or injury. 2. You’re traveling through Canada without unreasonable delay by the most direct route between Alaska and another state when a medical emergency occurs, and the Canadian hospital is closer than the nearest U.S. hospital that can treat your illness or injury. Medicare determines what qualifies as “without unreasonable delay” on a case-by-case basis. 3.

可以自己花钱请护工服务病人。1对1的大概200-300块。 也有4:1的,100块以内。
这个夸张了点。我在国内一线城市给家人请过护工。谈不上多好,也没什么黑的。 一天2/300块钱,24小时陪护,基本对得起那个钱就是了。
我就说奇怪嘛,那个ID一开始说medicare可以cover国外的emergency,贴出来的却是一个第三方保险公司的policy,这不就是造谣吗。
我一开始就没懂medicare怎么cover国外的emergency,因为涉及到报销流程,国外医院开个单子medicare是不认的,medicare只认美国医院的单子;此外,medicare也没有团队去国外核实病人的真实看病费用,只有第三方保险公司才有这个能力做这些事情。medicare最多唯一能够信任的就是隔壁加拿大的医院出的emergency的单子,所以在这一点上开了个口子,但限制条件非常苛刻。
总之一句话,medicare是不认国外的单子的。不管是不是emergency。
而说到第三方保险公司对于国外emergency的处理,这个险种是可以单独购买的,不管你有没有medicare都可以买,一个月十几到几十美金都有。中国的保险公司也提供这个,这叫意外险,旅游险,比美国的还便宜。如果只是图cover国外的emergency,不需要有medicare的资格,任何一个保险公司都提供这个。可是本贴说的是在中国看病,根本就不是emergency。
国内社保那点退休金根本不够用吧, 买菜都不能超市自由。 50岁还领不了美国的退休金。
