Does this plan provide benefits in my home country?

No. The Traveler Plan is a supplemental plan that only provides coverage for accident or illness outside of one’s home country.

What is a Guarantee of Payment?

GeoBlue issues a Guarantee of Payment (GOP) to define the charges GeoBlue has agreed to pay for medically necessary services and clearly indicate any applicable copayments, coinsurance or deductibles that are the responsibility of the patient. Contracted providers may contact GeoBlue directly for a GOP prior to providing medical treatment. The Direct Pay process generates a GOP.

To view your Guarantees of Payment visit the Member Hub or view them in the GeoBlue app.

How do I find and access participating providers outside the U.S. and avoid claim forms?

Visit the GeoBlue Member Hub or use the GeoBlue app to find providers and request Direct Pay. The app is available through the Apple App Store, Google Play Store or Amazon App Store.

For optimal service, request Direct Pay at least 48 hours prior to your appointment to avoid submitting claims and paying out-of-pocket for medical care (with the exception of any deductible, copayment or co-insurance that may apply at the time of service).
