To prevent dangerous delay in the delivery of necessary medical treatment in an emergency while attending a study abroad/intern abroad program, I hereby authorize immediate hospitalization, transfer to another facility, and any treatment deemed necessary and prudent by a qualified physician or other medical personnel, including the administering of an anaesthetic or performing necessary surgery. In the event that The Learning Abroad Co. is unable to contact my designated Emergency Contact or time in an emergency does not allow, or if I am unconscious or otherwise unable to give consent, I hereby authorize The Learning Abroad Co.’s representative to secure whatever medical treatment is deemed necessary, including administration of an anaesthetic and surgery.
I acknowledge that The Learning Abroad Co. requires me to have international medical insurance.
