Short Term Medical and Med-Evac Coverage 

If your trip will involve a brief period of travel, consider the need for Short Term Medical Insurance with Medical Evacuation (Med-Evac) coverage, or if you are comfortable with your health insurance plan, review the need for Med-Evac coverage alone. 

Many health insurance plans will cover you for emergency services only when you are traveling abroad.  However, since there are no relations with providers, you need to pay for your services and file claims to collect the money due to you.  Nearly all insurers offer no benefit if you should need to be evacuated to the nearest competent facility in the event of a life threatening emergency.  These costs can easily exceed $10,000. 

These plans and others are made available here through Frontier MEDEX.  This insurance company has been helping travelers in need for more than 30 years with 24/7 service, and relationships with more than 59,000 service providers.

Please note that if you are enrolling in the International PSC health plan, Med-Evac coverage is included in the premium.  There is no need to purchase additional coverage once the policy begins.
