“IMG Visitor Insurance is a rip off”

★☆☆☆☆

written by vivekabha on 17/09/2011

IMG finds all excuses to deny a claim. My mother in law had continuous visitor insurance for 18 months (and $3200 in premiums) when one day she had a delibating pain. It could not be controlled by pain medication and she could not keep her foot on the ground due to pain. We went to a doctor and he prescribede an MRI to check if there is anything rubbing againtt the nerves. The MRI came negative and only thing it found was some arthiritis, whish all 65 year old woman will have. Doctor did not prescribe any medication for Arthritis and concluded that something caused nerve swelling and message and rest for a week should help and that's all we did. IMG took six months and then denied the claim on the basis of pre-exisiting condition and pointed to a clause in the contract that they can deny a claim if a condition might have existed up to three years before the claim. Doctor has not linked the pain to the pre-exisiting condition. They also did not adjust the rates to in network rates. Interesting thing is that they did not treat visit to Doctor's office as pre-existing condition BECAUSE we paid the money as we had a $500 deductible. We will appeal to the Maryland Attorney Generals' office so that they are barred from perptreting this fraud on Maryland residents. In the mean time don't gift your money to IMG.

“Do not, do not, never….. take IMG Insurance”

★☆☆☆☆

written by trprig on 09/08/2011

In USA, IMG/ Sirus will unjustly deny your medical claims on the ground of Pre-Existing Conditions. In the policy document, it say that any dispute will be governed under Indiana State Laws only. And IMG will reply to the denied medical claims’ appeals with 90 days, and the complaint filed to Indiana Insurance Commissioner with 15 days of the receipt of complaint. Truly speaking, they take the time beyond 90 days period and never replies to the complaint forwarded through Indiana Insurance Commissioner. When I filed the complaint against them to the Indiana Insurance Commissioner, on unjustly denying my number of claims based on pre-existing conditions, I came to know that IMG is not registered in Indiana State. Hence, they cannot enforce them to solve the complaint of the consumer. If the consumer wants to take further steps, then he has to file a case against them to the Frederal Court.

IMG does not pay. They try and cheat you from your money. Do not get health insurance from them.

“I bought a GlobalSelect policy from...”

★★★★☆

written by on 19/05/2011

I bought a GlobalSelect policy from www.imgeurope.co.uk and it has worked fine for me and my family. My son had an accident in China and the policy paid his ambulance, surgery and medical bills no problem ($12,000). I'm happy with the service received and the price paid.

I made sure I read the policy part on how to claim before filling the form - it was easier to understand compared to some health insurance I've had before. No policy can cover everything - so read before you buy.

“I bought this for my parents when they visited US....”

★☆☆☆☆

written by on 02/05/2011

I bought this for my parents when they visited US. policy was $25000 with $50 deductible. My mother had a doctor visit for her fingernail fungus problem n was billed $95. Now the insurance ppl say I have to pay the whole $95 coz they have a $50 limit for physician visit! So whatever the extra amount is, I need to pay that.pardon my language here, why the bloody hell will someone purchase insurance if I have to pay out the whole damn bill amount from my own pocket? DONT EVER BUY THIS IMG. Their phone wait time is like one hour before a damn good for nothing attendant (rude) picks up only to tell u tht ur claim is denied. save some money n buy another insurance pls.

“My daugther was admitted to hospital.It's a shame, but...”

★☆☆☆☆

written by on 01/04/2011

My daugther was admitted to hospital.It's a shame, but it seems to me that IMG is working this way; `Doing everything within the policy rules to avoid paying out claims. All the bills an other necessary information from the hospital have been send, which have cost us USD 30 to send to the UK. There is no reason whatsoever to disbelieve this claim. Asking for the history of medical records make no sense to me, it's just a reason to avoid paying bills. Especially when IMG is well aware that in Indonesia they don't keep medical records at all. This is not Singapore or Europe.

Please never goto IMG.

I am a 24 year life and health agent in the United States.
All insurance companies check for pre-existing conditions before paying claims. Travel insurance is for sudden accute new health conditions while traveling. If inusurance companies accepted cliam just on" I said I was sick" there would be no insurance companies period. IF you have never worked with an insurance agent in the past I suggest you try that in the future.

I am not sure of anything negative to say about the insurance.

First of all we dont have to pay anything from out pocket immediately, the medical provided- sends the bill to img, and then img negotiates and gets the best rate- and aftet that based on our deductible, sends the bills.

I really find the ppo netwoork good & so the serives,

I would definetley recommend to friends, Also 1 more thing- lot of people dont know about this insurance and hence think it is not good, but i have compared all other cmpanies with IMG, i think IMG is best.

★☆☆☆☆

IMG (International Medical Group) is the worst insurance provider. filed few claims with them, none of them were successful. Don't waste your money with IMG. Phone wait time is terrible only to hear that the claim was denied. Its not worth using this provider.

They have always been willing to work with us, regarding the many issues you have with a family with four kids. They have dealt with the Polish hospital system directly to handle guarantee of payment issues and they have been very responsive to all our inquiries.

Mongol1962's Comment

Written on: 25/06/2012

As an administrator working at an international school in Asia, I chose IMG for our staff of about 20 foreign teachers. As far as I know there weren't any complaints from any of the staff, and I continue to use IMG to this day. I think every insurance company has to be careful to not pay out claims for previous conditions. I read about a number of complaints from people that bought trip insurance for their parents and then were upset about their claims being rejected. Any person in their 60's or 70's buying insurance for the first time, or trip insurance is probably going to get rejected for most claims. The only claims that will most likely be accepted will be those involving an accident.

Am surprised to read complaints about IMG. I was never really sick, but was impressed that they paid for regular preventive care up to $250 and paid my claims for these services promptly.
