Why Purchase International Accident & Sickness Insurance?
Who should purchase The Diplomat International?
Travel insurance designed for U.S. Citizens traveling outside the United States or Non-U.S. Citizens traveling outside their home country, with no travel to the United States. This valuable travel protection is ideal for students, business and leisure travelers, study abroad, international exchange students, tourists, holiday travelers, and church or missionary travelers.
Why do you need international travel insurance?
Problem for U.S. Travelers
Most group and individual health plans sold in the United States provide limited coverage while traveling overseas. PPO's do not extend their network's abroad, so any difference in billing expenses or claims will become your responsibility. Medicare provides NO coverage outside the U.S. (see U.S. Passport for details).
Problem for Non - U.S. Citizens
Nationalized or government sponsored health plans rarely provide adequate medical coverage for illnesses or injuries sustained while traveling outside your home country. Extreme sports, hazardous activities, emergency medical air evacuation and repatriation are usually not covered under nationalized health insurance schemes.

This insurance is not subject to, and does not provide certain insurance benefits required by the United States' Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act ("PPACA"). PPACA requires certain US citizens or US residents to obtain PPACA compliant health insurance, or "minimum essential coverage." PPACA also requires certain employers to offer PPACA compliant insurance coverage to their employees. Tax penalties may be imposed on U.S. residents or citizens who do not maintain minimum essential coverage, and on certain employers who do not offer PPACA compliant insurance coverage to their employees. In some cases, certain individuals may be deemed to have minimum essential coverage under PPACA even if their insurance coverage does not provide all of the benefits required by PPACA. You should consult your attorney or tax professional to determine whether this policy meets any obligations you may have under PPACA. This policy is not subject to guaranteed issuance or renewal.
