If a Member contracts COVID outside of the United States and is required to enter a mandatory quarantine, MASA will reimburse out-of-pocket expenses. This coverage includes accommodation, meals and airline re-booking.

Medical Payments Advisor

It’s no secret that medical bills are confusing and overwhelming. MASA’s professional advisors help Members coordinate communications to health insurers, verify policy enrollment, confirm medical benefits coverage, provide a medical expense outline and much more.

Hospital Private Room Upgrade

MASA will cover up to $1,500 per year in the event a Member needs a private hospital room after using their emergency transportation coverage.

Emergency Air Ambulance Coverage

In emergency scenarios where treatment is time-sensitive and specialized care is not available, MASA will cover members out-of-pocket expenses associated with emergent fixed-wing and rotary aircraft transport. All flights must be ordered by a first responder or transferring physician who deems air transport as medically necessary. This benefit is valid within the United States and Canada.
