Traveling abroad can be an exciting experience. But what would happen if you or one of your family members became ill or injured while away from home? International travel can quickly turn frightening if you’re not prepared for a medical emergency.

Most travelers assume they will be covered by their standard medical plan. The truth is, while traditional plans may offer adequate domestic coverage, they are not designed for international travel. Without even realizing it, you may be putting your health - and that of your family - at risk.

You have enough to worry about when you’re traveling. Don’t let your medical coverage be an uncertainty. International Medical Group^® (IMG^®) has developed two Patriot GoTravel^SM plans to provide you and your family 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.

Patriot GoTravel International provides coverage for U.S. citizens traveling outside the U.S. for a minimum of 10 days up to a maximum of two years. 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 two years. See the “Renewal of Coverage” section on page 8 for more information.

At IMG, we know that the reasons to travel abroad are many and varied - that’s why our services are designed to provide you with the security you need no matter where you are. Our goal is to make the medical process smooth and efficient. By providing global products and services to vacationers, those working or living abroad for short or extended periods, people traveling frequently between countries, and those who maintain multiple countries of residence, IMG is the single resource for all your international travel needs.

How we service and support your needs is what sets us apart. Since 1990, we’ve served more than a million people around the globe - always focused on the specific needs of each individual. We’ve set the benchmark for industry service levels by integrating independent credentialing services with in-house, fully owned and operated service divisions. At IMG, we’re with you, wherever you go - bringing support for all your insurance needs around the globe - providing you Global Peace of Mind^®.

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!

With the Patriot GoTravel plan, you may seek treatment with the hospital or doctor of your choice. When seeking treatment in the U.S., you can reduce your out-of-pocket costs by using 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 International Provider Access (IPA) database online 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.

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 you require express mail delivery, there is an additional charge listed on the Application Form.

For your convenience, you may choose to download your fulfillment kit from the our website rather than having it mailed to you.

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 return of mortal remains, 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 web site. 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, IMG's utilization management and review team will review the information provided and respond to the insured person or the provider within 2 business days. 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 GoTravel 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: 317-655-4505

When the certificate expires, the Company will review the date of initial treatment for the covered injury or illness.

TERRORISM COVERAGE:
Each Patriot GoTravel plan provides coverage for injuries and illness incurred as a result of an act of Terrorism, limited in amount and by circumstances. If an insured person is injured as a result of an act of Terrorism, and the insured person has no direct or indirect participation in the act, the plan will reimburse eligible medical claims subject to a $50,000 lifetime maximum. However, claims incurred as a result of radiological, nuclear, chemical or biological weapons or events are not covered.

Terrorism is defined as the systematic or planned use of violence, fear, or threat of violence in order to intimidate a population or government, especially as a means of coercion or to obtain a granting of any demand.

This benefit also does not cover an act of Terrorism in the event that an advisory to leave a certain country or location is issued by the United States government after the insured person's arrival date, and the insured person unreasonably fails or refuses to depart the country or location.
