    Medical Repatriation Coverage – Essential Care Anywhere

    Finding high-quality medical care can be difficult for some globally mobile employees, with the availability of adequate care varying greatly from country to country. Some territories can also have higher medical expenses and costs associated with treatment. The costs for employees to be transported back home can be extreme, and medical repatriation insurance acts as a safety net should they need to return to their home country to receive care. With the level of unpredictability that comes with overseas assignments, repatriation and evacuation benefits have become integral to international health insurance plans.

    Why Global Health Insurance Plans Must Include Medical Evacuation & Repatriation Coverage?

    Repatriation and evacuation cover are core benefits under a global medical insurance plan, and these important benefits cover the cost of taking an employee to the nearest suitable medical facilities or to their home to receive or continue their treatment, depending on the member's condition and location. If an employee's health is rapidly deteriorating, repatriation is often considered the best course of action for essential medical care. Many expats want to be transferred home if they're unwell or dealing with illness - Experiencing the comfort and security that comes with a familiar hospital or clinician alongside regular visits from family and friends can speed up recovery times and improve emotional well-being in stressful situations.

    Medical Evacuation & Repatriation Coverage by the Numbers

    With 4.800+ clinicians, in 1000+ locations over 90 countries1, your employees can rest easy knowing wherever they are in the world, they can receive high-quality, accessible care with Cigna Healthcare, Global Health Benefits. 100% of evacuation requests are reviewed by Cigna Healthcare medical staff2, and we2 help facilitate over 90 evacuations each year2, with 100% of emergency evacuation payments made directly to providers2.
