If you missed the latest press release, IMG is now offering more value to our international private medical insurance policy holders and institutional clients with the introduction of MyIMG Travel Intelligence.
MyIMG Travel Intelligence is a 24/7, intelligence-driven solution that proactively identifies potentially disruptive local events and alerts you with more information about how to stay safe. More than 36,000 alerts have been issued since 2013. These location specific alerts include warnings about severe weather, transportation, environment, health, security, and technology events that may impact travel.
How will this impact you?
As we continue to find ways to provide more value and services to our members, effective January 2, 2019, MyIMG Travel Intelligence is now included with IMG’s international private medical insurance plans (IPMI) including our Global, CrewSelect, and Maestro product lines. This service is accessible through the MyIMG portal.
With the rising number of potential travel risks in the world today, MyIMG Travel Intelligence will provide value beyond your health insurance coverage by also helping you proactively plan for and mitigate risks while traveling and living internationally.
As an example of how this service will benefit you, in 2016, the Zika virus was spreading quickly throughout South and Central America and the Caribbean, posing a threat to all traveling to or living in the affected areas. With MyIMG Travel Intelligence, if you were traveling to or living in the affected areas, you’d be sent an alert with information about the disease and tips for how to stay safe.
Weather alerts regarding hurricanes, volcanoes, blizzards, floods, and more will be sent out in a similar manner, meaning you won’t need to tune into the local news or worry about unexpected events that may arise as alerts will be emailed to you as soon as they become available. By providing this level of proactive, travel preparedness, you can travel with more ease than ever before.
In addition to real-time security alerts, we are also offering members access to destination reports that feature exclusive information regarding security, health, entry/exit, culture, communication/technology, legal, and language information for any country you may be headed to, allowing you to be as prepared as possible while traveling or living internationally.
