Short-Term Travel Defined as six months or less (cumulative or consecutive) After six months the domestic health insurance residency clause goes into effect; employee considered uninsured and claims will automatically be denied (residency clause may be omitted from some self-insured plans) Things to consider: Does the employee have a pre-existing or current condition?

Foreign Nationals – U.S. Inpats Do you provide coverage for short-term inpats? If yes, what benefits are covered and how does the plan work? Direct pay or expense reimbursement basis? How are large claims or hospitalizations handled? Are pre-existing conditions covered? Are family members covered if traveling with employee? Are there benefits for medical evacuation to home country, bedside visit or repatriation of remains?

Foreign Nationals – U.S. Inpats If no, does home country health plan cover them in the U.S.?
