BCBS Global Solutions Travel Insurance for Delaware Residents
Highmark Blue Cross Blue Shield of Delaware covers you in the US. The moment you board that international flight, your coverage stops. BCBS Global Solutions picks up exactly where your domestic plan leaves off — in 180+ countries, with up to $1,000,000 in medical benefits.
Emergency evacuation from the Bahamas to Wilmington averages $35,000–$60,000 without coverage.
Critical: Highmark Blue Cross Blue Shield of Delaware Does Not Cover International Medical Care
Highmark Blue Cross Blue Shield of Delaware plans do not cover international medical care beyond emergency stabilization. This means if you have a heart attack in Mexico, a car accident in Italy, or a surgical emergency in Japan — your DE BCBS plan pays nothing. BCBS Global Solutions is the international travel health plan built specifically for travelers from Delaware who want the Blue Cross Blue Shield name to follow them everywhere.
International Travel Insurance for Delaware Residents
Delaware residents, many of whom work in the financial and pharmaceutical industries, travel frequently to Europe and the Caribbean. The state's proximity to Philadelphia and New York makes international airports easily accessible.
Without international travel insurance, a single emergency abroad can be financially devastating. Hospital admission in Western Europe commonly runs $5,000–$15,000 per day. Emergency surgery in popular tourist destinations can top $80,000. Emergency medical evacuation back to Delaware — the most expensive scenario — can easily exceed $100,000 to $200,000. BCBS Global Solutions caps your exposure at zero above your deductible for covered events.
