Traveling abroad can be an exciting experience, especially when you’re involved in an educational or cultural exchange program. But what would happen if a member of your group became ill or injured while away from home? Your experience can quickly turn frightening if you’re not prepared for a medical emergency.

Whether your trip takes you abroad for a few weeks or a year, your cultural exchange experience should be an enjoyable one. Your group has enough to worry about when they travel. Don’t let their medical coverage be an uncertainty. International Medical Group^®(IMG^®) has developed three Patriot Group Exchange Program^SM plans to provide you and your group Coverage Without Boundaries^®. Each plan offers a complete package of international benefits available 24 hours a day. Simply select the one that best fits your needs.

The Basic Short-Term Travel Plan is an economical plan designed for a student studying abroad or a participant of a cultural exchange program. The plan may be purchased in monthly increments and can include coverage for the student or participant, his or her spouse and unmarried dependent children traveling with them. If the plan is purchased for a minimum of three months, coverage may be renewed (without break in coverage) for a total of up to 48 months. See the "Renewal of Coverage" section below for more information.

The Standard Short-Term Travel Plan is designed to meet the U.S. visa travel insurance requirements for a student studying abroad or a participant of a cultural exchange program. The plan may be purchased in monthly increments and can include coverage for the student or participant, his or her spouse and unmarried dependent children traveling with them. If the plan is purchased for a minimum of three months, coverage may be renewed (without break in coverage) for a total of up to 48 months. See the "Renewal of Coverage" section below for more information.

MyIMG is our proprietary online service that lets you access a wealth of information and manage routine areas of your account 24 hours a day, seven days a week, from anywhere in the world. You can check the status of your claims submissions, retrieve explanation of benefits, obtain certificate documents, initiate precertification and access a list of physicians within the Preferred Provider Organization (PPO) as well as through the International Provider Access^SM (IPA), a database of over 16,000 providers outside the United States!

You may seek treatment with the hospital or doctor of your choice. You are not required to use a preferred provider network. However, if you need assistance in finding a provider in the U.S., you may use the independent PPO, a separately organized network of hundreds of thousands of established, highly qualified health care physicians and many well-recognized hospitals in the U.S. contracted by IMG. IMG also provides its online International Provider Access (IPA) database that can be used to locate health care providers outside the U.S. as needed.

(Note: Use of this service is subject to the terms and conditions specified online. These terms must be agreed to prior to using the service.) You may access these services at provider directory.

The ability to access quality health care is of paramount importance when a medical emergency arises abroad. To coordinate care and provide U.S. and internationally based medical management services, IMG formed ACM, a URAC accredited, on-site specialized division devoted entirely to medical management. ACM’s clinical members are experts at assessing the need for services and ensuring those services are delivered in a timely, cost-effective manner. From routine medical care to complex case management, from check-ups to emergency medical evacuations, ACM is there for you. They are committed to consumer protection and empowerment, quality operations and regulatory compliance. This translates into better care for you - around the world, around the clock.

Short-Term Travel Plans - Before you begin traveling, simply fill out the Application Form and calculate the premium for the time period you and your family will be traveling. Once the Application Form is completed, return it to us. You, your spouse and unmarried dependent children (over 14 days and under 18 years of age) listed on the Application Form and for whom premiums have been paid will be covered from the latest of the following dates: 1) the date IMG receives your completed Application Form and the appropriate premium; 2) the date you depart from your country of citizenship; or 3) the date requested on the Application Form.

Patriot Exchange Program coverage ends on the earliest of the following dates: 1) the end of the period for which premium has been paid; 2) the date requested on the Application Form; or 3) the date you return to your country of residence.

Short-Term Travel Plans - IMG normally processes Application Forms within 24 hours of receipt. Once processing is complete, IMG will mail a fulfillment kit to the mailing address listed on the Application Form. The fulfillment kit will include an IMG Identification Card, IMG contact numbers, Claim Forms and your insurance certificate providing a complete description of your rights and benefits under the contract. Please note: If express mail delivery is required, there is an additional charge listed on the Application Form.

Each proposed hospital admission, inpatient or outpatient surgery, and other procedures as noted in the Certificate Wording must be Precertified for medical necessity, which means the insured person or their attending physician must call the number listed on the IMG Identification Card prior to admittance to a hospital or performance of a surgery. In case of an Emergency Admission, the Precertification call must be made within 48 hours of the admission, or as soon as reasonably possible. If a hospital admission or a surgery is not Precertified, eligible claims and expenses will be reduced by 50%. It is important to note that Precertification is only a determination of medical necessity, not an assurance of coverage, verification of benefits or a guarantee of payment. All medical expenses must meet usual, reasonable, customary, and eligible payment guidelines. Please refer to the Certificate Wording for full details of the precertification requirements.

For precertification, emergency evacuation and repatriation, please call: IMG in the U.S.: 1.800.628.4664 (toll free) or 1.317.655.4500. Call IMG outside the U.S.: 001.317.655.4500 (collect if necessary). This information will also be provided on your ID card.

Note: An insured person may begin the precertification process at IMG's website. Simply click the "Current Clients" title, then click the "Initiate Precertification" option. You will be asked to provide the required information, which can then be submitted electronically to IMG. The Medical Department at IMG will notify you upon receipt of the email, and once IMG has received the request, our utilization management and review team will review the information provided and respond to the insured person or the provider within 48 business hours. Please note that this online service will only initiate the precertification process, and it should not be used to precertify emergency admissions, procedures or evacuations.

All benefits payable under Patriot Exchange Program are subject to the provisions described in this brochure and as contained in the Certificate Wording and certificate of coverage. To make claim processing efficient, claims may be paid in two ways:

1. Eligible claims that have been paid by or on behalf of the Insured Person will be reimbursed by check directly to the Insured Person.

2. Eligible claims that have not yet been paid by the Insured Person will, at the option of IMG, be paid either to the Insured Person or directly to the provider.

Please mail completed claim forms to International Medical Group, P.O. Box 88500, Indianapolis, IN 46208-0500 USA. All IMG contact numbers, claim forms and Certificate Wordings will be included in the fulfillment kit. IMG may also be contacted by fax: 1.317.655.4505.
