health insurance and medical evacuation is case of accident, Povence

Bonjour,
I'm not going to be scaling any cliffs or sky diving, but has anyone had experience with using your medical insurance policy here in the states for treatment or surgery over in france, or purchased a travel insurance plan, which had a med evacuation provision?
Merci

You need to check to see what coverage, if any, your US health-insurance policy provides when you are in Europe. Some provide good coverage for basic medical treatment (medical evacuation is a different matter), but Medicare, just as one example, provides no coverage at all.
