Living In A Foreign Country But Traveling To U.s. For Healthcare

[josephi]

Just wondering that if I'm a U.S. citizen permanently living in Canada, would I still be able to use my U.S. Medicare coverage if I cross the border into the U.S. to get healthcare at a medical clinic here?

Yes you may, Medicare Part A is generally premium Free (so that definitely makes sense to have). Now Part B comes with a monthly premium, and is the part that covers your Dr. Visits. You do have the option of delaying part B until you’re ready to use it, however that could cause a delay in coverage and a penalty. Hope this helps
