Questions & Comments:

Are you considering Mexico as a place to retire? Either part-time or full-time Mexico has an enormous amount to offer retirees. You have a choice of climates ranging from spring like weather all year to warm humid ocean locations and dry inland desert.

Good healthcare is widely available. Mexico has quality doctors and hospitals and other medical specialists. When in Mexico without International Travel Medical insurance, if you need medical treatment you most likely will be required to pay for the services up front. You will be asked to show proof of insurance and give the facility a credit card number before you are seen. Remember, Medicare does NOT provide coverage while outside the U.S.

The U.S. State Department indicates that there have been numerous complaints from U.S. citizens regarding inflated medical charges at health care facilities in beach resort areas. You can avoid this problem by having International health insurance that is valid for the duration of your travel in Mexico.

GeoBlue International Travel plans pay their doctors and hospitals direct so you don’t have to. Coverage is also available with the U.S. coverage option.
