Personal International Travel Insurance
Most people recognize that travel insurance is an essential part of operating and living in today’s world. However, not all travel insurance programs are created equal. In fact, many may have conditions or exclusions that limit their ability to respond when they’re most needed. AHT offers a comprehensive, robust and trusted program for all of your travel needs – both professional and personal.

CASE STUDIES: HOW AHT REPRESENTED OUR IADO CLIENTS
ONE CLAIM, TWO POLICIES
Faced with a lawsuit from a former Chief of Party in a sub-Saharan African country, AHT helped a client navigate several policies to obtain coverage. Because the lawsuit alleged wrongful termination and the loss of personal belongings, both the Employee Practices Liability and General Liability coverages came into play. Initial reluctance by the General Liability carrier to extend coverage and resistance by both carriers to cooperate was overcome by the intervention of AHT’s Director of Claims who ultimately convinced both carriers to provide coverage.
Result: Both carriers agreed to pay for legal costs.
STAFF FATALITY
Following the untimely and sudden death of a local national NGO team member during program activities, AHT assisted the NGO in quickly initiating a claim for death benefits. When it became clear that the insurance carrier’s designated third-party claims handler was not providing the level of service or correct coverage, AHT escalated the case to senior claims management at the carrier.
Result: Appropriate death benefit was paid to the deceased family soon after the death, helping the NGO fulfill their obligations and comply with local custom.
