HEALTH INSURANCE suggestions.

I’m trying to figure out your coverage to see if it would make sense to switch. As best I can tell their regular advantage plans are limited to Emergencies and limited to 6 months. Have you added the “travel advantage rider” to the regular coverage?


We talked with our insurance guy to compare Medicare Advantage plans with international coverage. We do not pay anything extra for our plan. It does not cover medivac.

It is primarily for emergencies. He did not mention a 6 months limitation. Seriously, unless we had extraordinarily bad luck with multiple claims, how would they even know?

We kept our Medicare Part B coverage. If a really bad situation occurs, we will go back to the US for treatment. Or maybe choose to leave this mortal coil right here in paradise. ;-)
