All individual Priority Health Medicare Advantage plans include out-of-area travel benefits when you visit any Medicare-participating provider in the U.S., and with Assist America you get global emergency travel assistance.
Note: Applies to all Medicare Advantage plans except PriorityMedicare D-SNP and PriorityMedicare Dual Premier.
Coverage while traveling within the US
- Starting in 2027, you will not receive a Travel Pass. Simply show your Priority Health member ID card to your out-of-state provider.
- All individual Priority Health Medicare Advantage plans include an out‑of‑area travel benefit, so you can see any Medicare‑participating provider in the U.S. outside Michigan’s lower peninsula, only requiring you to pay in‑network costs.
- Our partnership with MultiPlan helps you easily locate Medicare‑participating providers while traveling, ensuring you get the care you need wherever you go.
- You’re also covered worldwide with unlimited emergency and urgent care benefits—travel with confidence, whether you’re close to home or across the globe.
Note: If you're a Priority Health Medicare employer group member and your ID card says “Out‑of‑network coverage,” you can still visit any Medicare‑participating provider in the U.S., but you may have a deductible and may pay more than you would with an in‑network provider. Refer to your Evidence of Coverage for full details.

Tips for using your travel benefit
What to do prior to traveling
Pack your Priority Health member ID card and your Priority Health travel benefit when seeking care while traveling outside the lower peninsula of Michigan. Your ID card serves as proof of your insurance through Priority Health and clarifies that you have coverage outside the lower peninsula of Michigan. Your Priority Health travel benefit helps providers understand how to bill Priority Health for your service.
Know before you go. If you regularly visit a provider outside the lower peninsula of Michigan, call and let them know that Priority Health covers services received outside the lower peninsula of Michigan. This will help ensure your provider bills Priority Health for your services instead of you.
During your medical service:
At your appointment, show your provider your Priority Health member ID card and let them know Priority Health covers medical services received outside of Michigan. Ask them to bill Priority Health for your service.
What to expect after your medical visit:
If you spoke to your provider and they agreed to accept your Priority Health insurance, they should bill Priority Health for the services you received.
