PlanetHospital Insurance Plans
PlanetHospital began as a coordinator of overseas healthcare for the uninsured desiring to travel abroad because they could not obtain or could not afford healthcare in the US or their respective country. Over time, as news of medical tourism spread, carriers, employers and self insured groups began to ask PlanetHospital to explore ways that would allow PlanetHospital to solve their skyrocketing healthcare cost problem.
Consequently, while maintaining our commitment to individual self payers, we expanded into healthcare solutions. As a result, over the past two years, PlanetHospital has developed several products for the marketplace.
Most of our products center around four critical needs:
1. Self insured companies and their related partners (such as Stop Loss agencies, TPAs, and MGUs)
2. Uninsured and underinsured individuals.
3. Healthcare plans that need to control expenses.
4. Immigrants and guest workers who need affordable healthcare while working in the US. If your needs fall into any of the above category, chances are we can assist you. Please select which situation best suits your needs from the list below or, if you are looking for an innovative solution not listed below, use the contact form to the right and send us your question in the comment section.
I have insurance and want to see if my plan will cover me
I have insurance and want to see if my plan will cover me: If your plan has an out of network program, or, if you are not sure if a procedure not available in the US will be covered by your insurer, chances are we can help you get your surgery abroad and reimburse you for most of your procedure.
In some cases we might even be able to get your travel reimbursed as well. To find out more, please fill out the following form and send it to us along with the front and back of your insurance card. We will take care of everything, from finding out if your insurance will cover you for your requested procedure to getting your reimbursement taken care of and of course our concierge service which includes all your travel arrangement, and if we do If get you approved, you are only responsible for a small deposit and your travel costs and WE will guarantee the insured amount to the hospital on your behalf, so all you have to do is show up.
I am looking for affordable insurance
Ever since Planet Hospital was created, our co-founder has believed that the real benefit from medical tourism will be when we can take the cost savings from overseas hospitals and bring this benefit to those who need it the most? the over 47 million people who lack healthcare insurance and the over 12 million who are ridered out of particular exclusions.
With that objective in mind, Planet Hospital is developing insurance programs that will help people who need help honestly and effectively. Answer yourself this simple question, would you be wiling to go to another country for excellent quality medical care in exchange for lower premiums?
If yes, then we encourage you to get on our mailing list and we will keep you updated as we develop innovations designed to help you.
