About Global Health Services

Global Health Services (GHS) is an exclusive medical support program for individuals and groups requiring a personalized and confidential link to immediate medical services. As your trusted partner and healthcare advocate, we provide twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week access to a GHS physician.

GHS services include:

  • 24/7 access to a GHS physician: Consult with a doctor by phone, email or other pre-approved technology twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week.
  • Access to the Global Medical Network: Be referred to trusted and confidential physicians and healthcare facilities worldwide from the Global Medical Network.
  • Coordinated care management: We hand hold you through any hospital or clinical experience. This includes call ahead assistance, discussions with your treating physician (s) and follow up after discharge.
  • Pre-trip travel assessments: These reports ensure you have expert health information and vaccination recommendations for the areas you plan to visit.
  • Initial health Intake: Get to know your GHS physician upfront, by discussing your medical history and health concerns.

Don’t let travel limit your access to quality medical care

While away from home medical concerns often arise that need immediate medical attention. Unfortunately, your primary care doctor or health insurance may not always be able to help you. From avoiding a hospital visit in Bangkok, coordinating a house call visit in London, or discussing the need for a swine flu vaccination, as a GHS member you don’t have to let travel limit your access to quality medical care. 

Do you have a unique need for medical services? Give us a call! Our Global Health Services team will gladly work with you to create a convenient and customized service package to meet your exact needs.

Please note: Global Health Services is not a substitute for health insurance. It is designed to augment your existing insurance policy or dedicated primary care doctor.
