U.S. Citizens
For U.S. citizens relocating or spending an extended amount of time overseas, security and flexibility are two essential ingredients of their medical program. There are thousands of medical insurance programs offered throughout the world, but there are just as many differences in the quality of both the programs and the insurance companies offering them. As US citizens, we are accustomed to a certain degree of stability. RESIDE Prime is underwritten by an A-"Excellent" rated insurance entity. Great care was taken to offer a program that gives insured's the same level of security abroad that they experience at home.

Foreign Nationals
A comprehensive plan providing protection in your home country as well as the freedom to travel abroad is hard to find. Finding a program with these qualities offered by a secure company is next to impossible. The RESIDE Prime Worldwide Medical Plan combines the stability and financial strength of a superior underwriter with the flexibility of a universal policy.

SPECIAL NOTE: This plan is renewable. This plan provides long-term medical coverage for non-U.S. citizens around the globe including the U.S.A. For U.S. citizen, you must live or travel outside of  the United States for at least 6 months of any given 12 months of policy period in order to qualify for this plan. If you are a non-U.S. citizen and a permanent resident of the United States, a green card holders, please contact us for eligibility requirement.

HOW LONG MAY I BE COVERED UNDER RESIDE PRIME?
The Reside Prime program is annually renewable as long as the eligibility requirements are met and the renewal premium paid. There are no additional medical questions upon renewal.

For those who apply for coverage prior to their 65th birthday and remain continuously insured for ten consecutive years, you will automatically be converted to Reside Prime Senior Provider at age 75 as long as you continue your eligibility status.
