For those that are participating in any hazardous sporting activity (so long as it is solely for leisure, recreational, entertainment or fitness purposes), a Sports Rider Coverage is absolutely essential. To register for this important coverage a special web page has been created exclusively for AKSA members: http://www.eglobalhealth.com/aksa.html

According to Logan Long,Safety Is A Necessary Concern For Kiteboarding (Kitesurfing) Articles president of AKSA, “It is irresponsible for our members to travel abroad and participate in this exciting but risky sport without proper insurance coverage.  It is for this precise reason that AKSA has aligned with eGlobalHealth Insurers Agency, LLC and MNUI to provide the best sports rider insurance coverage available today.”

The four programs being offered to AKSA members include:

  • The Atlas Series: Short-term health insurance for individuals traveling outside their Home Country.

Whether traveling for business or pleasure, the Atlas plan is ideal. Packages are available from a minimum of 5 days up to a maximum of one year. At no additional cost, the Atlas Series adds coverage for Emergency Medical Evacuation, Acts of Terrorism and Complications of Pregnancy. http://www.eglobalhealth.com/aksa_atlas.html

  • The Atlas Group Series:  Short-term international health insurance for 5 or more traveling abroad.

The Atlas Group series is tailored for groups of 5 or more US and non-US Citizens traveling outside their Home Country for 5 days up to one year. The perfect plan for vacation groups, missionaries, students and business executives featuring Emergency Medical Evacuation, coverage for Acts of Terrorism and Home Country Medical Coverage.  http://www.eglobalhealth.com/aksa_atlas-group.html 

  • The Atlas ProfessionalInternational health coverage for frequent travelers of business or pleasure, taking multiple trips throughout the year.
