• Personal Solutions – GeoBlue Navigator members enjoy a full range of Personal Solutions. Your online toolkit allows you to check medical symptoms, understand your health risks and access personalized prevention and wellness recommendations.
• Informed Choice To Get the Care You Need – If members experience unanticipated medical problems, they can request local, regional or global treatment alternatives through the Informed Choice service.

Here are some of the reasons our licensed international insurance brokers love to brag about GeoBlue:

• GeoBlue provides unsurpassed service and the convenience of mobile technology to access the best medical care no matter what town, country or timezone.
• Strength of the Blue Brands in the U.S. – GeoBlue Navigator international student members have cashless access to the Blue Cross and Blue Shield network in all fifty states. More than 96% of physicians and more than 92% of hospitals across the U.S. are a part of the BlueCard Network.
• Outside the U.S. – GeoBlue has a network of doctors that includes almost every speciality you may need in over 190 countries. Only a small fraction of doctors around the world meet GeoBlue standards – participation is by invitation only. They seek out professionals certified by the American or Royal Board of Medical Specialties who speak English. We factor in recommendations from over 165 Physician Advisors from all over the world. Then we assemble in-depth profiles so our members can choose with confidence, and we put formal contracts in place to ensure patient access. Once they’ve seen you, GeoBlue doctors bill us directly so you don’t have to file a claim.
• Emergency Evacuation and Centers of Excellence – Depending on your travel destination, adequate care for your condition may not be available locally. Medical evacuations can come with hefty price tags (at times up to six figures) and are difficult to organize and coordinate. In such stressful situations, it is important to have the reassurance that you will not have to pay for transportation to a nearby location for excellent medical care or to return home for the best care. What’s more, discerning between one air-ambulance company and another or having third party medical personnel assess the care you are receiving locally to verify the necessity of a medical evacuation, are the types of decisions which can be left up to the expertise of a travel health insurance provider.
• GeoBlue coordinates emergency services with a worldwide network of contracted Regional Physician Advisors as well as air ambulance operators selected for their safety records. Members in need of life-saving medical intervention are treated in Centers of Excellence in the U.S. and around the world whenever possible.
• Around-the-Clock Assistance Call Center – GeoBlue Navigator international student insurance maintains a 24/7, toll-free call center to assist GeoBlue members with everything from routine requests to medical emergencies. The GeoBlue staff has years of experience with international medical assistance and has close working relationships with its International Provider Community.
