Patriot Platinum Travel Medical Insurance: High-Limit Long-Term Protection for Extended International Travel

For extended international assignments — such as long-term mission work, humanitarian projects, faith-based service, or fieldwork lasting weeks to months — short-term plans often run out or leave gaps. Patriot Platinum from IMG is a premium travel medical insurance plan that provides comprehensive Accident and Sickness coverage for one continuous period outside the home country.

It offers flexible medical maximum choices up to $8 million, a wide range of deductibles ($0–$25,000), and strong benefits including emergency medical evacuation up to the plan maximum, acute onset of pre-existing conditions (for those under age 70), repatriation of remains, and enhanced services like Telehealth and Travel Intelligence. Coverage starts with a minimum of 5 days and can be renewed up to 36 continuous months.

This plan delivers high-level protection for organizations and individuals operating with limited resources who are traveling or living abroad for extended periods.
