a, This concept recognises that emergencies may occur which
affect the employee or the employees immediate fa
post with him. The employee can purchase Emergency Travel Insurance
and name himself and/or the other family met be s with him at the post to
provide for the contingency of emergency travel which may not qualify for
payment by OIYOKE. For exa=mple, the employee may become critically
ill and be evacuated to PBPRIME or to OI3YOKE medical facilities at an
intermediate location. Normally, his travel expenses would qualify for
payment under KUR however, the employee's wife would
have to assume the travel cost as a personal expense if she v4shed to be
her husband unless she qualified as an attendant. Under the provisions
of the Emergency Travel Plan if the employee is the first named he can
designate his spouse as the person to make the trip. In the event he be-
comes critically ill and must be evacuated, his wife, relying an the
insurance coverage, can accompany him. A similar use can be made of
the Emergency Travel Plan if the emergency involves the family members
at the post with the employee. By naming these family :embers and paying
additional premium, the employee can be assured of payment of travel
expenses if he wishes to accompany a critically ill family member.
b. The premium rates for the emergency travel plan are as
