One further question: IMG says "For a complete description of Passport Protection Plus benefits, conditions, limitations, and exclusions, please see the certificate wording which is available upon request and prior to purchase. " Could you please either give me a URL or send me an attachment in email where I can see the actual certificate wording for the Protection America plan. They say I can review it prior to purchase, so I am requesting this from you. Thanks

You can request it to be emailed to you before purchase.

One question regarding the below where you say that Protection America participates in the First Health PPO. When IMG sends out the Medical ID cards, will it mention "First Health PPO" on the card? Since this is the card that has to be shown to the Hospitals - I wonder if it is written on the card - if not, how does the Hospital get to know that this is the network for this plan?

Yes, First Health name and logo are printed on the ID card.

Alrite now I understand, thanks for that explanation. "Legalese" in these certificates is sometimes hard to comprehend , so thanks for the detailed answer you have provided. I believe it is generally better to do separate online applications for Dad and Mom - so they are on different policy # rather than on the same application (for flexibility purposes, for later alterations etc). Is that correct? You mentioned that I can do a secure web purchase - can you give me the URL for doing the online order...(I am asking you for the URL for purchasing, just to confirm I am going to the right website for ordering). Whenever I get some time this week, I may want to complete the purchase.

1. That's right. It is better to do separate applications for each person. 2. You can make online purchase at /patriot-america-lite/medical-insurance/ Please let me know if you have any other questions.
