Coverage While You Travel

From Suitcase to Worst Case You’ve worked hard your whole life and now it’s time to travel. You deserve a plan that keeps up with your travel plans. Here is how Simplete gives you peace of mind while on vacation.

Access to Worldwide Emergency and Urgent Care If you’re having a medical emergency, you shouldn’t have to worry about your coverage. Simplete plans provide access to virtual health coverage in the United States and a Nurse Advice Line worldwide so you can get care and answers to health questions whether you’re at home or away.

Assist America® When you travel 100 miles or more from home, Simplete members have access to Assist America*, a global emergency service that’s ready to help if you have an immediate health need. Assist America can connect you to prompt, reliable medical attention, as well as some non-medical services, as needed. Here are just some of the services that are included: • Prescription assistance if you need medication or left your prescription behind. • Emergency medical evacuation. • Help returning home if you need medical care. • Lost luggage assistance. • Interpreter and legal referrals. *Members may have additional costs related to travel services.

Coverage on the Go

Stressing about health coverage when you travel? That was the old way. Now there’s a new way. Simplete includes global coverage for emergency and urgent care, plus additional travel assistance through Assist America® .

All Assist America benefits apply on all of our Medicare Advantage plans, but when you’re out of network, our HMO plans cover only emergency and urgent care. Assist America will not pay you back for ambulance and other services you arrange on your own. In a life-threatening emergency, always call the ambulance right away. There is no added cost for the service itself, but there could still be a cost with any medical care. Other conditions and exclusions may apply. 23
