This brochure is a brief description of the benefits of the Diplomat Med-E-Vac program. A complete description is contained in the plan summary, which will be mailed to you upon your enrollment in the program. All premiums are in US Dollar amounts.

Global Underwriters offers other plans that would include medical reimbursement. Please look at
these plans if you need medical coverage. Keep a copy of this brochure for reference.
Foreign nationals traveling to the USA; US Citizens traveling abroad and individuals traveling outside their Home Country are eligible. Coverage is available for you, your spouse and unmarried dependent children. A dependent child is from 14 days to 1 8 years of age and traveling with the parent, grandparent or legal guardian.
