At ALO Bariatrics, patient safety is our top priority.
Thanks to the extensive experience of our surgical team and the use of top-tier hospitals, our complication rate remains well below the expected average for bariatric surgery. Even with the highest standards of care, it is important to understand that any surgical procedure carries potential risks.
For many international patients, having an additional layer of protection brings extra peace of mind while traveling. That’s why we offer an optional Medical Travel Insurance for Complications through Global Protective Solutions (GPS).
Why consider complication insurance?
Some patients feel more comfortable knowing they have coverage for unexpected medical situations during their trip. A specialized policy like this can help reduce financial stress if unforeseen events occur related to:
- post-op complications
- extended hospitalization
- additional medical care
- changes to travel arrangements due to complications
This insurance option is designed specifically for medical travelers undergoing elective procedures outside their home country—something that many standard travel insurance plans do not cover.
What Global Protective Solutions may include
Depending on the plan selected, GPS programs may offer benefits such as:
✅ Medical complication coverage
Coverage for unexpected complications related to the procedure, including additional medical/surgical treatment that may be required. Some plans include protection for complications that occur up to 180 days after the procedure.
✅ Travel accident / illness coverage
Assistance for travel-related accidents or illness during your trip.
✅ Extra travel-related expenses (if medically needed)
Support for additional travel costs that may arise due to complications (such as extended stay).
✅ 24/7 assistance services
Access to support and guidance for covered events while traveling.
✅ Optional companion coverage
Some options can include coverage for a travel companion for travel-related accidents/illness during the trip.
