As important as it is to maintain good insurance as you serve overseas, it is equally important to have the right kind of insurance and know how to use it.  Whether you are serving for a couple weeks or a lifetime, you need to make sure your insurance will travel overseas with you.  Here are some things to look for in an insurance policy.

  • Medical Coverage – accident, sickness, evacuation/repatriation, family travel, accidental death & dismemberment, hospital deposit/cash advance, return of mortal remains
  • Security Coverage – crisis management, political evacuation
  • Liability Coverage – legal defense
  • Worker’s Compensation – extension of US worker’s comp
