Why You Need Travel Medical Insurance in Mérida
Mexico does not accept US Medicare or Canadian provincial health cards. A private hospital admission in Mérida costs $1,500–$3,000 USD per night, and an emergency evacuation can exceed $25,000 USD. Travel medical policies from GeoBlue, Trawick International, and IMG start around $1 per day and cover emergency care, hospitalization, evacuation, and repatriation — with direct-pay hospital billing so you never pay thousands upfront.
