What's Covered by Atlas America

International Coverage

Emergency Medical Evacuation and Emergency Reunion

Would you know what to do if you found yourself in a life-threatening situation far from home? We are experienced in arranging emergency medical evacuations. Atlas America will cover eligible expenses necessary to transport you from an initial treating facility to the nearest hospital qualified to treat your life-threatening condition. We also understand the importance of family support in these difficult situations. Atlas America will also cover the transportation, lodging, and meal costs for a relative to join you after a covered emergency medical evacuation, up to the lifetime limit.

Repatriation of Remains

What would your family do if disaster strikes while you are away from home? The death of a loved one is never easy, no matter the circumstances. In the unfortunate event of your death while traveling abroad, Atlas America will arrange for and cover eligible costs associated with the repatriation of your remains.

Return of Minor Children

If you are expected to be hospitalized for more than 36 hours due to a covered injury or illness and covered children under 18 years of age will be left unattended as a result, Atlas America will cover the eligible transportation cost for the children to return home.

Terrorism

In these turbulent times, the risk of a terrorist attack is a reality. If you are in the wrong place at the wrong time, and the country or region you're visiting is NOT under a level 3 or higher travel advisory, Atlas America offers coverage for eligible medical expenses resulting from those acts. Coverage excludes countries or regions for which the U.S. Department of State has issued a level 3 ("reconsider travel") or higher travel advisory in the 60 days prior to your arrival date.

Political Evacuation

If, during the coverage period and after your arrival, the U.S. Department of States issues a level 3 or higher travel advisory for your destination country, Atlas America will coordinate your alternate departure arrangements from that country and cover eligible associated costs.

Natural Disaster - Replacement Accommodations

Natural disasters can happen anywhere and at any time. If a natural disaster occurs on your trip, causing you to become displaced from your planned and paid accommodations, Atlas America will provide relief of a maximum of $250 a day for 5 days to help cover the costs of alternative accommodations.

Atlas America provides a limited benefit up to the medical coverage lifetime maximum for eligible medical expenses. If you are younger than 80, you may be covered for an acute onset of a pre-existing condition. This also includes up to a $25,000 lifetime maximum for emergency medical evacuation.

An acute onset of a pre-existing condition is a sudden and unexpected outbreak or recurrence that is of short duration, is rapidly progressive, and requires urgent care. A pre-existing con-dition that is a chronic or congenital, of that gradually becomes worse over time, is not acute onset of a pre-existing condition.

The Acute of Pre-existing Conditions benefit will only apply if all of the following conditions are met:

The Acute onset of a Pre-Existing Condition does not directly or indirectly relate to a chronic condition or congenital condition;
Treatment must be obtained within twenty-four (24) hours of the sudden and unexpected outbreak or reoccurrence;
You must be under eighty (80) years of age;
You must not be traveling against or in disregard of the recommendations, established treatment programs, or medical advice of a physician or other healthcare provider;
You must not be traveling with the intent or purpose to seek or obtain treatment for the pre-existing condition;
You must be traveling outside your home country
