Original Medicare (Parts A & B) may cover medically necessary health care services on a cruise ship, if the ship you’re on when you receive the care is in a U.S. port or no more than 6 hours away from one when you get the services. That means the ship can be in the water, but must be within six hours of a U.S. port. Also, the doctor must be legally allowed to provide medical services on a cruise ship.

 

Original Medicare will not cover any care you get on a ship that’s more than six hours from a U.S. port, even if it’s an emergency.

Here’s my thinking from over here in the peanut gallery, which of course is only a guess. In order for Medicare to apply to a medical issue while on a cruise, the time has to be documented as to when you checked into the ship’s medical clinic, and the ship must subsequently arrive at a US port within 6 hours of that time. Anyone know how it really works?
