Medical coverage that travels with you.
International travel can bring unexpected illnesses, injuries, and challenges finding appropriate care. Review coverage designed to support your health and budget outside the United States.
Why it matters
Your domestic health plan may not fully travel with you.
Many domestic health plans provide limited or no coverage abroad. Blue Cross Blue Shield Global Solutions offers international medical plans for individuals and families traveling outside the United States.
Depending on the plan selected, benefits may include:
- Coverage for unexpected illnesses and injuries outside the U.S.
- Medical evacuation and repatriation
- Plan options that include coverage for pre-existing conditions
- Freedom to visit any doctor or hospital
- Unlimited telemedicine visits
- 24/7/365 worldwide support through the mobile app
- Coordinated coverage with providers in more than 190 countries
Additional travel-related benefits may include:
- Emergency Family Travel Arrangements — up to $2,500
- Accidental Death & Dismemberment (AD&D) — principal sum up to $50,000
- Baggage & Personal Effects — up to $500 per trip, limited to $100 per bag or personal effect
- Post-Departure Trip Interruption transportation — up to $1,000
- Quarantine lodging and incidentals — up to $500, limited to $50 per day for a maximum of 10 days
- Covered expenses are based on Reasonable Charges, which may be less than a provider's actual billed charges. Providers may bill the covered person for amounts exceeding covered expenses.
- This is not Affordable Care Act minimum essential coverage. The policy is issued on a non-admitted or surplus-lines basis and is not protected by U.S. state insurance guaranty funds.
Single-Trip plans cover one international journey. Multi-Trip plans are designed for travelers taking multiple international trips during the policy period and cover up to the first 70 days of each trip.
Plan availability, eligibility, benefits, limitations, exclusions, deductibles, and pricing vary. Review the applicable policy documents before purchasing.
