Miami, October 22/2002 -- Leading international healthcare provider, Goodhealth, has launched in the United States the ÂGlobal Health PlanÂ, a new product that enables US Citizens living abroad (expatriates) and residents of Latin America and the Caribbean access to medical treatment and facilities of choice in the United States.
ÂOur clients are those expatriates that work for global multinationals and take a job outside of their home country, companies such as General Electric, Siemens, and ABN Amro Bank; and high net-worth individuals who reside in countries that are not up to US standards in healthcare, said Francisco Torres de Navarra, Business Development Manager for Goodhealth (www. goodhealthworldwide. com).
The new plan offers policyholders a range of first class US medical features and service back-up including:
 An annual benefit of up to $1M per person
 Maternity cover
 In and outpatient cover
 Worldwide cover as long as the resident is outside the US
 Air ambulance service
 Worldwide evacuation service
 Local claims handling
The program will be distributed by Goodhealth Bermuda, which will also provide technical support to customers from a new Miami base, headed by Francisco Torres De Navarra, who joined Goodhealth Worldwide from Aetna Global Benefits where he was Director of Marketing for the Americas.
ÂWe will be directing the product at Caribbean and Latin American residents, and their families. The Global Health Plan will provide an excellent solution to those who desire the added comfort of knowing that medical treatment in the United States is available if they need it, added Torres De Navarra.
GoodhealthÂs CEO, Martin Garcia, said, ÂThe launch of the Global Healthcare Plan is a typical example of our policy of developing affordable but comprehensive products to meet the local needs of customers. It further expands our existing range of bespoke products that already provide value-added healthcare to customers in Asia, the Middle East and Africa.Â
