Exclusions in Expatriate Medical Plans

As with all plans we offer, it is strongly advised that you review the details of the plan before purchasing it. You should be able to review the policy certificate or plan rules before making the final decision. These documents will detail everything that is covered and, just as importantly, what is excluded.

Although many plans don’t specifically list pre-existing conditions as an exclusion, certain conditions may be excluded from the plan during the underwriting process.

Additional Features to Look for in an Expat Plan

You want a plan from a global provider with a large network of international hospitals and healthcare facilities within its network of service providers. For example, Cigna Global Medical Plan has over 1 million hospitals, doctors, and healthcare facilities within its global network.

Make sure the provider offers 24/7 access to an emergency hotline that you can call for emergency assistance and medical advice. All of the leading expatriate plans will have this.

Finally, look for a plan that offers a choice. You should be able to purchase a plan that meets your needs. If you don’t think you will use your plan frequently and don’t need comprehensive benefits, you should purchase a lower cost plan with limited benefits. Other customers want the highest quality of service and benefits and are willing to pay for that. Choose a plan that allows you to get the benefits and options that are the right mix for your specific needs.
