We are pleased to offer the services of International SOS to staff, faculty and students traveling to international
destinations on official university business. International SOS is a comprehensive, 24-hour medical and emergency
service response organization. International SOS does not provide medical insurance, but offers assistance with a
variety of travel related issues -- from doctor referrals to emergency evacuations. International SOS will encourage
members to pay at point of service and submit a claim for medical expenses with their insurance provider upon
return to the U.S. However, if an individual is unable to pay, SOS, with the assistance of the University, will contact
the individuals family in order to establish a line of credit through either personal credit card or wire transfer. If
a family member cannot be reached, SOS will guarantee payment on behalf of the University. If SOS guarantees payment
on behalf of the University the traveler will be responsible for arranging for repayment of the costs to the University.
