FAQ – Do I require additional healthcare cover if I already have coverage by my airline?

Many airlines provide some medical coverage for their employees. In many instances the coverage provided has several limitations and major medical treatment may either not be covered, not be totally covered, or may require lengthy approval processes, often being financially limited to the cost of local health care. The GlobalCare pilots Plan is low cost, transparent and covers most medical conditions globally. Approval is fast (not required in the event of an emergency), and lifetime coverage is up to US$5M per person. Pilots and their families have the peace of mind of knowing that in an emergency, when treatment is not provided locally, emergency transportation is available (by ground or air ambulance), without concerns about cost or employer approval. Employers have the benefit of knowing that major worldwide medical coverage is provided to their employees at lower costs than that included in many local medical plans.
