Our medical team will liaise with the treating hospital, and if you are covered, may provide written guarantees of payment for reasonable expenses (subject to your claim being approved). If you are covered and approved for medical evacuation, they will arrange this, if it’s deemed necessary.
For minor ailments, such as those that only require a GP visit, you may attend the doctor, pay for your visit upfront and then submit your claim either from overseas or once you return home.
Make sure that you keep all receipts and reports from your treating doctor, including the diagnosis and treatment notes and any other documents. If your total cost of treatment will exceed $1,000 you MUST contact our medical assistance team as soon as possible.
Our medical assistance team has information on hospitals in many of the countries we provide cover for.
You may choose your own medical adviser or we can appoint an approved medical adviser to see you, unless you are treated under a reciprocal health care agreement.
If you do not get the medical treatment you expect, we will not be liable for anything that results from that treatment.
