    Medical Benefits Abroad

    For companies based in Canada or USA

    Medical Benefits Abroad®

    If your business has employees traveling internationally, you'll want a policy that's committed to high quality health care with benefits that follow them wherever they go. Our Medical Benefits Abroad plan includes coverage for unexpected illness or injury while your employees are travelling on business, whether they need hospital or out-patient care, emergency dental treatment prescription medication.

    There's nothing worse than falling ill when you're far from home, and we help make the solution smooth and hassle-free. Our customer service representatives are available around the clock every day of the year and will facilitate direct billing where possible. We've also developed an online portal where you can file your claim – or research your destination before you travel.
