Options
Continuing Coverage
For those who are intending longer international trips, an option is available. If an insured chooses this option on the application and enrolls in at least three (3) months, a notice will be sent to the insureds address of correspondence, allowing him or her to purchase another period of coverage (minimum of 1 month, maximum of 12 months). If at least an additional three months of coverage are purchased, Seven Corners will continue to send notices to the insureds address of correspondence. If fewer than three months of coverage are purchased, Seven Corners will assume that your international trip is complete and will not send any further notices.
While a new period of coverage will be issued, the original effective date will be used with regards to calculating the deductible and coinsurance (for up to a total of 12 months, then both will begin again), as well as determining any pre-existing conditions.
The maximum period of time Seven Corners will offer this feature is three years (one year for persons age 65 and over). It is important to note that rates and benefits may change for each subsequent period of coverage. A $5.00 Administrative Fee will be included on each notice. This option is not available if you allow coverage to expire prior to reapplying. If this happens, an entirely new program must be purchased (preexisting condition begins again).
Continuing Coverage is available in periods as short as 5 days at a time when purchased using Seven Corners's online system.
Hazardous Sport Coverage
To cover motorcycle / motor scooter riding, mountaineering (4500 meter limit), hang gliding, parachuting, bungee jumping, water skiing, snow skiing, snowmobiling, and snow boarding.
Prenotification / Referral
In order to ensure your claims are addressed as efficiently as possible, the Insured or the provider of service must contact the Assistance Company for pre-notification prior to: any medical treatment in the US as well as hospital admissions and inpatient / outpatient surgeries incurred worldwide. The Assistance Company has trained personnel available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week throughout the year to answer questions, provide assistance, and guide insureds to appropriate facilities if necessary. In the case of an Emergency Admission, the Assistance Company must be contacted within 48 hours, or as soon as reasonably possible. Pre-notification does not guarantee that benefits will be paid. Failure to prenotify will result in a 20% reduction in Eligible Benefits.
Please be aware that this is not a general health insurance policy, but an interim, limited benefit period, travel medical program intended for use while away from your Home Country. Liaison International does not guarantee payment to a facility or individual for medical expenses until Seven Corners determines that it is an eligible expense.
Refund of Plan Costs
Refund of plan costs will be considered only if written request is received by Seven Corners prior to the Effective Date of Coverage. If written request is received after the Effective Date of Coverage, the unused portion of the plan cost may be refunded minus a cancellation fee, provided no claim has been submitted for reimbursement.
Claim Submission
Filing a claim with Seven Corners is easy. An insured will receive a Liaison International identification card and claim form once approved for insurance. Once treatment is received, send the original, itemized bills to Seven Corners within 90 days. Eligible bills are automatically converted from local currencies to US dollars. For payment of eligible medical expenses, notify Seven Corners of pending treatments and we can refer you to approved health care providers worldwide.
