Is it a good idea?..... If I were going to fly... or drive.... up there I would SURELY won't to have an appointment no matter how available someone might think/know they are.
Don't forget the required covid test if flying......
So is this a 'private' United Healthcare policy, a Medicare Supplement gap policy or a Medicare Advantage policy? If either of the latter two, does UHC know that you live full time in Mexico?
If you are having recurring outages that a battery UPS won't handle you might need to invest in a small generator.... make it a Honda so as to be quiet.
IF (your) Mexican policy also covers Liability in the US for, say, a month that is a valuable addition. A month's Liability coverage just cost me $115.... and I'll have to cancel it before the month is up or get charged for another month.
My Mexican policy did NOT cover it....
I had that micro- surgery in the US maybe 10 years ago. If one didn't know that, they would not be able to see/find scars. One reason is that I had a fantastic surgeon... but I also carried a small 'ball of silly putty' around with me and constantly massaged the hand. Nothing on that hand is showing signs of return or another cord.
But now the other hand has a cord that is needing attention as can't straighten out my pinky. Back to that surgeon in the Fall.
