From what I have read the insurance is currently designed for ex-pats. However, it has been used to given Brits and others with National HC access to USA health care. Other than ex-pats it has been part of the growing medical tourism boom. I am guessing that if it pays, private doctors will accept it. My wife and I are looking at some policies to hedge our bets. In 10 years I may need health care and be told I am too old. This will give me the option even if it means going to the Philippines or Costa Rico. I can afford it so why not? By the way, I have a bad shoulder, while on active duty I was refused surgery because, I was too old, when I was preparing to retired the VA doctor concurred. Rationing in the federal health systems already occurs, imagine what is coming.
