We are both 66 and covered by Medicare and Tricare for life. Do we need any additional medical coverage other than medical evacuation?

Hi Calypso54,

 

Medicare won't cover you. If you got ill or injured outside the USA, what's the most you will pay in deductibles and co-pays that Tricare doesn't pay?

We have the Trip Mate insurance that is offered by Viking (didn’t know there were other options) for our Scandinavian cruise, flights and extension.  We are F 55, and M 54 with no known medical issues. We live in Texas.  We have a very locally limited HMO medical plan through BC/BS.  What type of supplemental medical plan would you recommend?  Thanks.

Here is a link to the policy in case you have not already examined it. You have $100,00 per person in medical coverage.

I just did a google search for Tri Care for Life and international coverage
