Have you ever wondered how you would get home if you became ill or injured while traveling and required inpatient care? Can you select a particular physician or hospital if surgery or specialty care is needed? How would you get there? We all know how important it is to be close to family support and doctors we know and trust during a medical crisis.particularly when far from home.

If this dilemma is one that you have considered, you can commend yourself for being forward-thinking and definitely out of the norm. The majority, both from the corporate viewpoint as well as the leisure traveler, think it will never happen to them. In the January, 2005 edition of Travel + Leisure , the purchase of travel medical insurance was placed in the #2 position of their "12 Travel Resolutions". It's important to consider how you would handle an emergent medical situation; knowing that domestic air medical evacuations average $15,000 while international transports can often exceed $75,000. There is a cost-effective solution to this potentially debilitating scenario. MedjetAssist.

MedjetAssist was formed in 1990 as an annual membership program for U.S. and Canadian residents, acting much like the AAA Auto Club. When members traveling 150 miles or more away from home, become ill or injured and find themselves hospitalized, MedjetAssist will provide direct access to a medically dedicated long-range aircraft capable of transporting them from domestic or foreign destinations back to the hospital of their choice . Members with "in-network" providers for health insurance now have the option to return to specific physicians and hospital settings of their own choosing. More importantly, it allows you the opportunity to be with family and friends near your bedside while you are hospitalized.rather than facing surgery, specialty care and recuperation in some remote location.

There are virtually no pre-existing condition exclusions; and unlike other travel insurance, assistance programs or platinum card benefits, the member is the one who makes the choice of whether they want to be transported and to what hospital setting. MedjetAssist is a pre-paid benefit program with zero out of pocket expenses to the member for the transport and other ancillary services provided by MedjetAssist. There is no monetary limit to the benefit schedule nor any deductibles, co-payments, claim forms or waiting periods. There are no limitations on the number of trips a member may take as they travel and no health questions to enroll up to age 75! A separate "Diamond" program is available for those ages 75 to 85.

MedjetAssist membership for an individual is only $205 per year or $325 for family protection. Short-term membership is also available from 7-30 days beginning at $75.
