Inside the United States — With the Seven Corners Travel Medical USA Visitor plan, you may seek treatment from any medical facility or provider you wish.

Outside of the United States — Seven Corners has a large directory of providers, and many of them have agreed to bill us direct for treatment they provide. We recommend you contact us for a referral, but you may seek treatment at any facility.

Pre-existing conditions include any injury or illness, including mental illness, which meets one or more of the following criteria before your effective date of coverage:

1. You were diagnosed;
2. You received treatment;
3. Treatment was recommended to You;
4. There is reasonable medical certainty that the injury or illness existed within the last 36 months, whether or not it previously manifested, was symptomatic, known, diagnosed, treated, or disclosed.

This includes any chronic, subsequent, consequences related thereto or resulting therefrom, or recurring complications of an injury or illness which meets the above criteria. 

Many travel medical insurance plans do not cover pre-existing conditions. Seven Corners Travel Medical Visitor USA covers them through the Acute Onset of Pre-Existing Conditions benefit.

Coverage amounts vary by age and plan. See the schedule of benefits in the plan document for details.

This benefit covers the first acute onset of a pre-existing condition that occurs during your period of coverage.

An Acute Onset of Pre-Existing Conditions is the occurrence of a pre-existing condition that meets these criteria:

1. It is sudden, unexpected, and occurs without advanced warning;
2. It is a medical emergency;
3. It occurs during the period of coverage and after the 168-hour (7-day) waiting period;
4. You obtained treatment within 24 hours of the occurrence;
5. You did not have a change in prescription or treatment related to the underlying pre-existing condition within the last 30 days; and
6. Your pre-existing condition is not congenital, a previously diagnosed chronic condition with expected episodes or flare-ups, or a deteriorating condition which cannot be controlled and gradually intensifies over time.

Coverage begins 168 hours (7 days) after your coverage begins and ends when the first of these events occurs:

1. The condition no longer being acute; or
2. Your discharge from the hospital.

There is no coverage for known, scheduled, required, or expected medical care, drugs, or treatments existent or necessary prior to arrival in the USA and before your coverage begins.

There is no coverage for treatment for which you have traveled or conditions for which travel was undertaken after your physician limited or restricted travel.

This insurance is not subject to and does not provide certain insurance benefits required by the United States’ Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (“PPACA”). PPACA requires certain U.S. citizens or U.S. residents to obtain PPACA compliant health insurance, or “minimum essential coverage.” PPACA also requires certain employers to offer PPACA compliant insurance coverage to their employees. Tax penalties may be imposed on U.S. residents or citizens who do not maintain minimum essential coverage, and on certain employers who do not offer PPACA compliant insurance coverage to their employees. In some cases, certain individuals may be deemed to have minimum essential coverage under PPACA even if their insurance coverage does not provide all of the benefits required by PPACA. You should consult your attorney or tax professional to determine whether the policy meets any obligations you may have under PPACA.
