INTERNATIONAL MEDICAL INSURANCE AND HEALTH INSURANCE FOR OVERSEAS GLOBAL COVERAGE
Because there are so many exotic diseases that might affect the specific area of the world where you are working, there are many diseases not mentioned in this treatise. Our organization and others use screening histories on a computer-based questionnaire that correlates with Center for Disease Control (CDC) risks anywhere in the world. This is the best possible approach because the best defense is a good offense in prevention, doing this before one goes overseas. It is invaluable in taking care of the problems you may encounter. 90% of medical diagnosis is actually detailed history and not necessarily expensive lab and hospital tests.
I freely welcome constructive criticism of the contents of this health manual, additions, or deletions. It is intended to be useful to those people working and living abroad. Changes, additions, and websites at the end of this document will be recommended for you to consult, specific to the geographic area of your service. Your questions and e-mails are welcomed. Keep in mind that medicine is rapidly changing and there are new vaccines.
Sincerely,
Jon Askew, MD

"Doug, Thank you very much for your email! This is really the most comprehensive and professional answer we got."
"Jeff, I just wanted to say a quick "Thank You" for the newsletter, or "Quarterly E-Bulletin." I don’t know if this is all your work or a team, or you buy content, or just who puts it together; but I’ve gotta say it’s one of the few pieces of its kind that I actually *read* top-to-bottom. [The "Quarterly Bulletin" is written by Jeff, assisted by the GNI staff.]"
"Nelma, Thank you so much for your immediate help in getting my credit from the insurance company. It’s this kind of service from you and your partners that keeps me coming back to GNI for ALL my international insurance needs. "
"Trish, Thanks so much for your follow-up on this. We actually got a check in the mail already, covering all the charges minus the $250 deductible. I was surprised and pleased that we got it so quickly! Thank you again for taking care of us. You have been extremely helpful, Trish."
