OHIP Coverage while Outside Canada - Possible?

I live outside Canada , 5-6 months out of the year hence am not a burden on the provincial system in Ontario.

That being said I do sometimes need to see a doctor outside Canada due to a condition that can’t wait 5 months to be attended in Canada , example bladder infection.

Can this doctor visit be covered by Ohip and if so how do I make a claim?
