Updated: Aug 15, 2020

Join us for a casual chat with founding members Ron and Mike as they discuss the details and benefit of Medical and Security Evacuation, often referred to as Air Ambulance. Learn why it is a valuable addition to our Here2There program.


Why was it so important that this benefit be included as part of the Here2There protection program?





Mike: "I think this product is unknown, under utilized...Let me give you an example, in the United States you have your medical insurance that covers your accident or health issues, but if you need to be transported, that coverage is not provided by your health insurance.As an example, San Francisco to Rochester, Minnesota, Mayo Clinic, that costs would be in excess of $20,000. People do not realize the advantage of this type of program, not only in the United States, but internationally."


Ron: "From the international side, and with all of my travels, I look at if more from the international side, people don't understand how expensive it is if you have that emergency. Typically, you'd be transferred, if you had an injury, from a clinic to a hospital in a major city. They are going to do that by air ambulance. That costs runs into several thousands of dollars. And then, if you are to be transferred from the city back to the United States, an example that I just heard recently was of a gentleman who was transferred from Asia, I believe from Hong Kong, back to the west coast of the US, it was $196,000. Incredible costs! It's like the insurance that you don't know that it's there, it's under-utilized, it's the insurance you need if it ever happens and you hope you never have to use, but if you do, you want it."
