Editor Review
The Good: Designed for executives under age 76 who log a lot of miles outside their home country. This plan offers the ease of a single annual plan with an affordable premium and excellent coverage. Spouses and children – even groups of executives (at least five) – can be covered as well. Two formats are available: one for U.S. citizens and one for non U.S. citizens.
The Drawbacks: Coverage for pre-existing conditions is significantly limited (only $5,000). This coverage requires the insured to be covered by a plan back home. No political evacuation is available for trips to a country that has had a travel advisory in the last six months.
The Bottom Line: This is a good short-term medical plan with excellent plan limits for business executives who take many trips outside their home country. This plan offers great features from a reliable company and it includes a few extras that can help make an executive’s life on the road a little easier.
