International health insurance (sometimes called medical insurance) is a contract between you and an insurance company. In exchange for your premium payments, the insurance company agrees to pay for medical expenses you incur under the terms of the contract.
Health insurance is essential in this day and age because a single accident or serious illness can wipe out your savings and plunge you into debt.
There are many reasons to purchase international health insurance for you and your family, but this is the most important one since medical charges can run into the tens of thousands of dollars or more for a single injury or illness. Furthermore, the costs for hospitalization and treatment of injuries continue to rise at a rate that exceeds inflation.
The international health insurance plans offered by Global Insurance Net eliminate these risks, since you and your family can get unlimited lifetime coverage.

Even though you are not a U.S. resident, with any of these plans, you are free to travel to the U.S. to receive care. All of our plans are designed to cover medical costs incurred on a global basis, and we recognize that many of our clients prefer to come to the U.S. for medical care.
