WHY YOU NEED INTERNATIONAL COVERAGE
Each year, millions of people travel internationally
throughout the world. While many of them may have medical coverage when

incidental medical expenses arising from an emergency medical evacuation or a
repatriation of mortal remains.
Liaison Traveler is designed to
offer emergency medical evacuation, repatriation of mortal remains, and
accidental death and dismemberment, and incidental medical expenses for persons
traveling outside their Home Country or Country of Residence.
This brochure is a brief description of Liaison Traveler. A complete
description is contained in the Program Summary, which will be mailed to you
together with your ID Card after SRI receives your completed application and
correct premium.
NOTE- This plan offers coverage for
emergency medical evacuation, repatriation of mortal remains, AD&D and
incidental medical expenses when traveling internationally. SRI offers
several programs that provide comprehensive international medical coverage,
check the rest of the site for details.
