Marine Crew Health Insurance
Marine crew health insurance provides annually renewable major medical insurance plans for marine and yacht crew members while at sea and on land.
What does marine crew health insurance include?
Marine crew health insurance may be comprised of various benefits, some of these standard benefits may include:
Emergency Medical Expenses
If you were to get sick or injured while on a ship, yacht, at port or on land, it would pay for necessary medical expenses. It would cover Dr. visit, urgent care, emergency room visit, hospital room and board, ICU, surgery, prescription drugs, labs and x-rays, MRI or CT scan, ambulance, and other medically necessary services.
Emergency Medical Evacuation / Repatriation
If you were to get seriously sick or injured and appropriate medical treatment was not available locally, this benefit would help make arrangements for transportation to the nearest medical facility that can provide adequate care. It can also arrange for transportation back to your home country once you are stable and capable of traveling a long distance on a commercial airline.
Return of Mortal Remains
If you were to unfortunately pass away while outside your home country, this benefit can pay for the transportation of your remains to your home country or for local cremation.
Learn MoreMental and Nervous Conditions
Some plans also pay for the treatment of mental and nervous conditions. While some plans pay only for outpatient treatment, others may pay for both outpatient and inpatient treatment. There may be a waiting period such as 12 months of continuous coverage.
Optional Coverages
It can optionally provide term life insurance, Accidental Death & Dismemberment (AD&D) coverage, terrorism coverage, adventure sports coverage, and dental & vision coverage. All such options may not be available in all plans.
Your vessel's P&I insurance may not provide adequate medical coverage. You need year round major medical insurance, whether on duty or off duty.

Travel Insurance Coverage Options
Depending on what is most important for you to have covered, there may be a plan better tailored to your needs:
Marine Group Health Insurance
If you are a group of 5 or more marine crew members, you can get marine group health insurance. It can be customized to meet your group's specific needs. Once you submit the request for proposal, we will provide you the proposal in a few business days. In order to get the lowest rates, it may require additional underwriting including the group's prior claim history.
Trip Cancellation Insurance
Being a crew member and aboard the ship for an extended duration can be stressful. Therefore, you may want to take a break occasionally and go on vacation. However, it is important to purchase trip cancellation insurance just in case you need to cancel your trip unexpectedly. That would help you get the refund of non-refundable prepaid trip costs for covered reasons for cancellation. Traditionally, such plans have been available to US residents only. However, we offer several plans that are available for non-US residents as well.
Visitors to USA Insurance
Many marine crew members choose a coverage area excluding the US for their marine crew insurance to control the costs. Therefore, if you will be visiting the US for a short duration, you can purchase visitors insurance that can provide temporary medical coverage while in the US. There are many visitor medical insurance plans available. They will generally cover any new medical conditions, injuries or accidents that may occur after the effective date of the policy. However, some plans may additionally cover acute onset of pre-existing conditions up to a certain amount for people up to a certain age.
Group Travel Insurance
If a group of 5 or more crew members or yacht crew is traveling outside the area where their marine crew insurance covers, they should consider purchasing group travel medical insurance. It generally provides the same coverage as the individual plans but is usually 10% cheaper. Such short term health insurance would provide medical coverage, trip interruption, emergency medical evacuation, repatriation of remains, loss of checked luggage, AD&D and several other benefits.
