International SOS


MIT has contracted with the travel assistance company, International SOS (I.SOS) to provide emergency medical and security evacuation services to faculty, staff and students who are traveling abroad on MIT business. International SOS has 24-hour Alarm Centers, international clinics and remote-site medical facilities covering five continents.

Please note that these services are neither a substitute for, nor supplement to, personal health insurance. MIT travelers must maintain their own personal health insurance and should confirm coverage limitations, if any, while traveling abroad, with their health plan administrator prior to departure.
