The Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS)—which was developed by the PCI Security Standards Council (PCI SSC) created by Visa, MasterCard, American Express, Discover, and JCB—is an extensive set of technical and operational standards that a company needs to follow to ensure that all companies that process, store, or transmit credit card information maintain a secure environment.
There are many stringent requirements, including but not limited to:
PCI DSS has six major objectives, 12 key requirements, 78 base requirements, and over 400 test procedures. Click here for more information.
When a business is PCI-compliant, it means that that the business reviews and follows the guidelines set forth by the credit card companies to help ensure your credit card information is protected and your personal information is secure.
atlas vs Liaison continent Hello I read that liaison continent is the best insurance with a big ppo but I've compared the available doctors in my route (SFO-Yosemite-Las Vegas-Page-Grand Canyon-Santa Monica-Big Sur) and it seems that Atlas is better. Perhaps I'm searching wrong? I was thinking in taking Atlas because of their 100% coverage if you go to PPO but there is something I don't understand very well: For charges made by a Physician for professional services, including Surgery. Charges for an assistant surgeon are covered up to 20% of the Usual, Reasonable and Customary charge of the primary surgeon, but standby availability will not be deemed to be a professional service and therefore is not covered hereunder. If I have to be operated of appendicitis or a heart attack, for example, what would be the typcial prices for the assistant surgeon? I understood that I would have to pay 80% of it. regards, Elisa
1. PPO network. You can look at the PPO network in Atlas or Liaison Continent by following the corresponding link at /visitor-insurance/ Those are the providers in a particular area. 2. Assistant surgeon in Atlas: It is not covered at 20% of the charge, but it is covered at 20% of the primary surgeon charge. That is sufficient. In over 10 years that we have been selling the plan, we have never seen that not to be sufficient. In other words, you do NOT have to pay the 80% of the assistant surgeon fee. 3. Standby availability is not covered in either of the plan as it is subject to high misuse by the doctors. Please feel free to contact us or post here if you have any other questions.
