OptionsContinuing CoverageFor those who are intending longer international trips, an option is available to you. If you choose this option on the application and enroll in at least three (3) months, a notice will be sent to your address of correspondence, allowing you to purchase another period of coverage (minimum of 1 month, maximum of 12 months). If you purchase at least an additional three months, Seven Corners will continue to send notices to your address of correspondence. If you choose to purchase less than three months, Seven Corners will assume that your international trip is complete and will not send any further notices. While a new period of coverage will be issued, your original effective date will be used with regards to calculating your deductible and coinsurance (for up to a total of 12 months, then both will begin again), as well as determining any pre-existing conditions. Since Seven Corners's Benefit Period states that the program will pay up to a total of 6 months for any one eligible condition, you can be protected beyond your period of coverage. The maximum period of time Seven Corners will offer this feature is three years (one year for persons age 70 and over). It is important to note that rates and benefits may change for each subsequent period of coverage. A $5.00 Administrative Fee will be included on each notice. This option is not available if you allow coverage to expire prior to reapplying. If this happens, an entirely new program must be purchased (preexisting condition begins again). Continuing Coverage is available in periods as short as 5 days at a time when purchased using Seven Corners's online system. Hazardous Sport CoverageTo cover motorcycle / motor scooter riding, mountaineering (4500 meter limit), hang gliding, parachuting, bungee jumping, water skiing, snow skiing, snowmobiling, and snow boarding. Prenotification / ReferralIn order to ensure your claims are addressed as efficiently as possible, the Insured or the provider of service must contact the Assistance Company for prenotification prior to: any medical treatment in the US as well as hospital admissions and inpatient / outpatient surgeries incurred worldwide. The Assistance Company has trained personnel available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week throughout the year to answer your questions, provide assistance, and guide you to an appropriate facility if necessary. In the case of an Emergency Admission, the Assistance Company must be contacted within 48 hours, or as soon as reasonably possible. Prenotification does not guarantee that benefits will be paid. Failure to prenotify will result in a 20% reduction in Eligible Benefits. Please be aware that this is not a general health insurance policy, but an interim, limited benefit period, travel medical program intended for use while away from your Home Country. Liaison Continent Insurance does not guarantee payment to a facility or individual for medical expenses until Seven Corners determines that it is an eligible expense. Refund PremiumSeven Corners realizes that there is uncertainty in international travel. Refund of total plan cost will only be considered if written request is received by Seven Corners prior to the Effective Date of Coverage. If written request is received after the Effective Date of coverage, the unused portion of the plan cost may be refunded minus a cancellation fee, provided no claim has been submitted to Seven Corners for reimbursement. Claim SubmissionFiling a claim with Seven Corners is easy. You will receive a Liaison® Continent identification card and claim form after your application has been processed. When you receive treatment, send the original, itemized bills to Seven Corners within ninety (90) days. Eligible bills are automatically converted from local currencies to U.S. dollars.
