Health Insurance Abroad

The office of IPS hopes everyone has a safe and healthy journey when traveling on the FIE grant.  We would like to provide you with important information regarding Blue Cross Blue Shield and coverage abroad.  Please review the following link with information about ‘BlueCard Worldwide’.  The website contains information about health care abroad, designated hospitals and providers, and claim forms for services.  The website advises for travelers to review their Blue Cross Blue Shield plan prior to departure because health benefits may be different abroad.
