Counseling

If you are already receiving routine counseling or believe it would be useful to start counseling while abroad there are things to consider...

1. Insurance Coverage
   • Mental and Nervous Disorders are covered
     • Out Patient (Psychiatry, Psychologist, Counselor)
       • 40 Sessions
     • In Patient (hospitalization)
       • 30 days
     • All costs are covered, including copay and no deductibles (traveler must keep all receipts to submit)
2. When to Start Searching
   • If you know you want to continue or start counselling while abroad you should start searching prior to leaving the USA.

4. Want to continue to use your counselor in the USA?
   • It is possible to continue with your local counselor, however, it can be difficult to find the right platform to do so.
     • Due to confidentiality and security issues you and your counselor would have to find a way to have a online session that meets confidentiality and security standards.
     • Talk to your counselor.
