Helpful Extras: Attorney Search, Physician Search, and Nurse Helpline

What is Attorney Search?

Unforeseen legal situations can happen while in another country, whether it’s an accident or misunderstanding or you simply need advice on local laws. MASA’s Attorney Search benefit helps you find a reputable attorney who better understands the legal system of the country you’re in. With our Attorney Search benefit, you’ll never have to navigate complex legal matters alone — you’ll have the support and guidance you need wherever you are.

What is Physician Search?

Medical emergencies can happen anywhere you go, including while you’re in another country. Getting the right care is often critical if you develop a sudden illness, experience an injury, or have a flare-up of an existing condition. However, finding a reliable, licensed physician in a foreign country where you may not know the language or healthcare system may be challenging. MASA’s Physician Search benefit takes the guesswork out of the situation by connecting you with a licensed doctor, so you can feel confident that you’re getting the care you need from a qualified professional.

What is Nurse Helpline?

For less urgent but pressing health questions, MASA’s Nurse Helpline benefit helps connect you directly with a licensed nurse who can provide expert advice, day or night. Whether you’re unsure if your symptoms require immediate medical attention or if you simply have questions about a recent diagnosis, our Nurse Helpline benefit gives you reliable and knowledgeable support, with a nurse just a phone call away.
