Yes We do have to carry our own medical insurance in the US, and in an accident or case of diease, we are stuck with what our insurance doesn't pay. But sometimes in accidents (car, train, plane) our auto insurance will give a settlement to pay for medical bills, and replacement of vehicle.
the insurance company of the airline or train should pay for everything in that instance
All uk citizens are covered by 'national insurance' and receive free medical treatment. Non residence in the event of an accident are treated as said by the insurance companies. If yu do not have private insurance and are injured outside of a major disaster ie: car crash, you will have to pay your own costs. OK
Mostly insurance company bear the cost.
