SHORT-TERM INTERNATIONAL TEAM INSURANCE

How important is it? Just a few months ago a short-term team was riding in the back of a truck in Honduras when the brakes went out. The truck rolled over. One USA team member, a dentist, was killed, and at least 12 were seriously injured. Because these teams had short-term team insurance, within 24 hours all of the seriously injured had been medical evacuated to the USA and were in USA hospitals.

The financial cost to a USA organization to evacuate that many people would have been enormous, besides the medical costs. Total costs certainly exceeded $200,000. Obviously, this organization was really thankful, especially since the short-term team insurance coverage they had purchased was only $1.73 per day per-team member.

We can insure your organization if the total team days outside the USA amounts to 700 days. Thus, if you have 7 teams with 10 members on each team spending at least 10 days outside the USA, we can provide you with a per-day annual quote. If you are interested, please send us the following information about your teams:

  1. Average number on each team
  2. A “ballpark guess” at the average age of the team members
  3. Average number of days the teams are out of the USA
  4. The number of teams your organization will be sending in the coming 12 months

We will then get you a per-day quote for your consideration. If you agree to the team quote, we will set up an online application site just for your organization.
