Long Term Comprehensive Group Medical, Life,
Dental and Indemnity Plan for
The employees' distant location separates them from access to U.S. health care providers. Time zone differences limit the availability of most plan administrators - especially in the event of an emergency. Language and cultural traditions may also hinder communication between the medical provider and the employee or plan administrator. Most significantly, the levels of medical provider training and public health care services in many countries lag far behind minimum U.S. standards. Providing appropriate benefit plans for these complex situations is a formidable challenge faced by all multinational corporations and international organizations. Benefit managers must furnish a program that, in essence, surpasses the domestic benefit plan. In addition to full coverage for treatment while in the U.S., the international program must provide employees worldwide access to quality care, global portability, professional international benefit administration and special assistance coverage during medical emergencies. Organizations confronting these difficult issues have had few options for international benefits ... until now. GEO Plus InternationalSM is an international group employee benefit plan specifically designed to meet the expatriate requirements domestic programs fail to address:
GEO GroupSM allows employers to carve out the international component of their employee population and to provide U.S. style benefits. Employees with considerable international experience have found it prudent and cost-effective to separate these risks. Employers are able to quantify costs, limit liability and contain expenses relating to overseas operations, which are often separate profit centers. Additionally, lower international medical costs are reflected in the international premium levels. With the investment for expatriate employees growing, employers must offer competitive benefit coverage during an employee's service abroad and upon their return home. GEO GroupSM offers domestic style benefits, complete portability, seamless coverage, worldwide access to medical care, expert international claims management and cost-effective 24-hour peace of mind for both employers and employees.

19, 2009The Philippines orderes imports of 250,000 tonnes of rice and lawmakers rushed to approve funding for immediate rebuilding of farms and roads badly damaged by two typhoons that killed over 650 people. The Philippines, the world's biggest rice buyer, would hold a tender two months earlier than normal on Oct. 30 for the shipment of the grain, which it wants delivered between January and April, the National Food Authority said.

In this statement, the Geneva-based Internal Displacement Monitoring Centre reminds us that up to 400,000 people fled their homes in the south of the Philippines last year to espace from fighting.
