Does My BCBS Plan Cover International Travel?
No. All domestic Blue Cross Blue Shield plans — including BCBS of Texas, Florida Blue, Anthem BCBS, Premera, Regence, Highmark, BCBS of Michigan, and all others — do not cover medical care received outside the United States. BCBS Global Solutions is the dedicated international travel health plan from the Blue Cross Blue Shield family, designed to cover US residents wherever their travels take them.

Trusted BCBS Brand
The Blue Cross Blue Shield name is recognized by hospitals and providers worldwide. Using a carrier hospitals already know can reduce friction and delays when you need care most.
180+ Countries
Coverage extends to virtually every international destination — Mexico, Canada, Europe, Asia, Latin America, Africa, and beyond. Exclusions apply to sanctioned countries.
Emergency Evacuation
Emergency air evacuation to the nearest adequate facility or back to the US when medically necessary. Costs $75,000–$200,000+ without insurance — fully covered with BCBS Global.
24/7 Global Assistance
Round-the-clock multilingual assistance: hospital and physician referrals, interpreter services, emergency cash advance coordination, and claims support in any time zone.
Real Medical Coverage
Covers ER visits, inpatient hospitalization, surgery, specialist fees, ambulance transport, and ICU care — at covered hospitals in every destination country.
Pre-existing Options
Platinum plans include pre-existing condition coverage. Gold plans cover acute onset — sudden emergency flare-ups of existing conditions that require immediate treatment abroad.
