Why Patriot America Lite?
Traveling abroad is an exciting experience, but unpredictable illnesses and accidents can happen. Most travelers assume they're already covered by their standard medical plan - but that isn't always the case. While domestic plans provide sufficient coverage at home, most are not designed to provide the coverage and assistance required for international travel.
This plan provides various levels of coverage for individuals, families, and groups who need temporary medical insurance while traveling for business or leisure anywhere outside of their home country. Ideal for international vacationers, relatives visiting from overseas, and international business travelers, this plan is designed to protect you in the event of an illness or injury when traveling abroad and provide medical benefits in case of emergency.
Choose Patriot America Lite to meet your needs, and spend more time enjoying your international experience - not worrying about your medical coverage.

| Maximum Limit | Up to $1 million |
| Deductible | $0 to 2,500 |
| Extensions | Up to 24 continuous months |
