Some Medigap plans (C, D, F, G, M, and N) offer foreign travel emergency coverage, but these plans often have limitations, such as a $250 deductible, a 80% coverage rate, and a lifetime maximum benefit of $50,000.

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. There are some limited exceptions that would allow
you to get coverage outside the U.S. under Medicare Part A (Hospital Insurance) and
or Part B (Medical Insurance).
