Benefits

Healthcare for Traveling Abroad

Emergency Healthcare Abroad

The domestic coverage employees and their family are enrolled in with Sequoia is extended for use abroad only in emergency or acute care situations. Emergency care would generally mean your physical and/or mental health is in serious jeopardy, serious impairment to bodily functions, or serious dysfunction of any bodily organ or part. Any services received abroad would be covered as out of network.

Travel Assist (aka Travel Aid)

TravelAid is a supplementary program that provides emergency support while you are traveling. It is a comprehensive program providing you with 24/7 emergency medical, security, and travel assistance (including emergency medical evacuation and repatriation) when you are outside your home country or 100 or more miles away from your permanent residence. Full details of service as well as any conditions and limitations are provided in the program description available upon request at TravelAid. It can be used for both personal and business as long as they are an active US employee. While there is no member specific ID card for TravelAid you can find details on how to use this benefit in the attached plan document.

TravelAid is only extended to dependents that are actively covered under the employee’s medical plan. Keep in mind, it’s not insurance it’s a travel aid that provides emergency support if their physical or mental health becomes impaired.
