MEDICAL & MORTAL REPATRIATION

Bringing You Home When It Matters Most

Your only focus should be survival and recovery — not financing a commercial medical flight home.

The critical difference: evacuation vs. repatriation

WHAT GOVERNMENT INSURANCE COVERS

Medical Evacuation

In a life-threatening crisis, TRICARE and FEHB will generally cover transport to the nearest capable medical facility. Their obligation ends there.

THE GAP OCONUS SHIELD CLOSES

Medical Repatriation

Once stabilized, standard insurance will not fly you home. Private medical flights routinely cost between $50,000 and $100,000 — a cost members would otherwise bear entirely alone.

The OCONUS Shield solution: true medical repatriation

Once treating physicians determine you are stable enough to travel, we fully fund and coordinate your return to the United States — whether that requires a specialized air ambulance with a critical care team or a commercial flight with a dedicated medical escort.

Mortal repatriation: honoring your loved ones

Standard government health plans do not cover the return of mortal remains. Grieving families are forced to navigate foreign legal bureaucracies, secure international death certificates, and pay out-of-pocket costs that can exceed $15,000 to $30,000 — just to bring their loved one home.

Absolute relief

We fully fund and manage the dignified, legally compliant, and culturally appropriate return of mortal remains to the United States.

Complete coordination

We handle all host-nation paperwork, embassy coordination, and transport logistics — so the family can focus on mourning, not finances.
