It depends on your plan. From the Medicare site:
"In general, health care you get while traveling outside the U.S. isn't covered. The 50 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, Guam, the Northern Mariana Islands, and American Samoa are considered part of the U.S."
Travel (when you need health care outside the U.S.) | Medicare
However Advantage and supplement plans can include health care while you travel if they want to.
Advantage plans are only required to cover what Medicare covers which means they are not required to cover travel outside the US. Just another detail that gets in the way when you have choose a Medicare supplement/advantage
