Medicare, the United States federal health insurance program, is not accepted in Canada. Canadian healthcare is publicly funded and operates under a different system, meaning that U.S. Medicare benefits cannot be used for medical services in Canada. Travelers from the U.S. are advised to obtain Travel Insurance to cover any potential healthcare costs while in Canada.

I am a US citizen on US Medicare residing in Canada (permanent resident) - where can I buy supplementary insurance for US Medicare service for the 20% not covered by Medicare in the US. ?

As a US citizen residing in Canada, you may face limitations when it comes to purchasing supplementary insurance for US Medicare services. Most US private insurance companies do not offer coverage for individuals living outside of the United States. It is recommended to explore insurance options available in Canada that can provide coverage for healthcare services received in the US. That way, you can find coverage for the 20% not covered by Medicare while you are in the US.
