Gateway Plans
Gateway Plans are international insurance plans designed to provide individuals with coverage outside their home country when interim or alternative arrangements are required. For short- or long-term stays, Gateway Plans fill the gap when existing insurance is limited.
Gateway is engaged by:
- Corporations in support of their expatriate populations and international trainees,
- Academic institutions in support of student travel, seminar attendees and scholarly exchanges,
- Cultural exchange programs, and
- Leisure travelers, too.
Our clients also include: international agencies, NGOs (non-governmental organizations), government agencies or agency departments, research facilities, churches/ministries, and volunteer organizations and associations.
