(1) Insurance companies provide medical evacuation to nearest medical facility that can give adequate care. They will evacuate back to the home country if necessary. This is determined after consultation with the insured, the doctor on site, the doctor working with the insurance company and insurance company personnel that handle evacuations. Please note that medical evacuations are not covered if not approved and administered by the insurance company.

For a wide assortment of other polices that will provide adequate medical coverage for you anywhere in the world go to our corporate page: www.gninsurance.com.
