Holiday Travels Ahead
Projections indicate that Americans will be traveling outside the United States in record numbers this holiday season. But many are unaware that their medical insurance policies and governmental healthcare programs won’t provide sufficient coverage during their foreign travels. Once they cross the border, whether it be by plane, boat or car, many of the benefits they think they can count on cease to exist or are at the very least diminished.
It is quite important that you inform and educate your friends, family and clients about the inevitable gaps in their healthcare when they venture outside the country. No matter age, gender, socioeconomic status or citizenship, every U.S. resident traveling outside the United States needs a supplemental international major medical insurance policy.
Petersen International offers a very comprehensive international travel medical program. The USAway International Major Medical Plan is one of the finest sources of medical protection one can have while traveling, living or working outside the U.S. Its robust benefit structure easily fills the gaps found in traditional healthcare plans, and further boasts important supplemental benefits such as emergency evacuation, repatriation and trip interruption that come standard with every policy. Clients also have the option to add a COVID-19 benefit rider.
The USAway Plan can accommodate short and long-term international travel itineraries. Policies can be purchased through personalized agency web portals that we create specifically for each producer or agency, allowing your clientele to purchase the coverage easily online under the guise of your company’s branding. Your clients will receive their policies and ID cards electronically, moments after purchasing the appropriate plan.
Whether the traveler is a U.S. resident taking a Mediterranean cruise, visiting relatives in India or attending a business conference in Dubai, travel insurance is a necessary component in providing medical and financial protection when someone you know and care about ventures outside the country this holiday season.
