Global Protective Solutions
Offering the needed protection where:
- Standard travel insurance usually excludes medical travelers and their companions
- Your private or national health insurance usually does not provide benefits when you are abroad
- Private health insurance is unlikely to cover complications related to elective surgery
- Employer health or travel benefits usually exclude elective surgery and treatments
All medical travel and procedures carry a certain amount of risk, known and unknown. Complications and accidents can and do occur. Your enrollment to a Global Protective Solutions program, helps lessen the significant financial risks and burden that may arise, from those sustained from elective treatment or travel related activities.
Other programs such as “fly back cover” or “surgical warranty / guarantee” provide limited protection only while you are in the visited country. They all require that you return at your expense to the foreign country to take advantage of any benefits in the event of a medical complication (you may not be medically fit to travel). It is important to realize that these plans will not provide any assistance for you at home or respond in an urgent or emergency situation.
