I think it’s time for claims to weigh-in on H1N1. Our department is getting questions about whether or not H1N1 is a covered medical expense because it's a Pandemic.
With flu shots in full swing here in the US and all of the information on the H1N1 virus and prevention, our staff thought it was a good time to remind our international travelers that there are certain immunizations required for entry into specific countries and / or recommended by the Centers for Disease Control and the World Health Organization.
It's no surprise that the Swine Flu pandemic has raised valid concerns for people who are planning a vacation. Many people have cancelled their flights, specifically flights departing for destinations outside of the US. Seven Corners continues to monitor the situation closely.
The Health Area of our wellabroad site posts up to date by country information that is relevant to pandemic planning, such as phase escalations, occurrences of community level spread, and new countries with confirmed cases. If people are feeling ill or hear of increase Swine Flu breakouts in the areas where they are going to be traveling, they are airing on the side of caution and thinking their best bet
