2 . BEST DOCTORS, WHEN YOU NEED TO BE ABSOLUTELY SURE Best Doctors Corporate Health Insurance is built around the idea that getting your employees the best medical care should be the starting point of any insurance. We provide direct, immediate impact from initial diagnosis, regardless of the level of coverage you chose for your company. Not only do we help employees navigate the healthcare system we give them confidence to articulate their wishes, concerns and questions with their own treating physician. Essentially, we become your employee s healthcare advocate. LLOYD S DELIVERING FINANCIAL SECURITY Best Doctors Corporate Health Insurance in Trinidad and Tobago¹ is 100% underwritten by certain underwriters at Lloyd s.

3 CASE STUDY.. Name: Dave.. Case Overview: Surgery and radiation to remove and eliminate tumor.. Best Doctors Expert Findings: Radiation treatment not indicated no evidence of tumor.. Impact: Avoided incorrect treatment and severe complications. DAVE WONDERED IF RADIATION THERAPY WAS NECESSARY At age 37, Dave was experiencing neck pain and numbness in his limbs. After a series of tests, he was diagnosed with a spinal cord tumor and scheduled for surgery and radiation treatment. RIGHT DIAGNOSIS Concerned about the potential for paralysis and effect of radiation, Dave called Best Doctors to have his diagnosis put through the Best Doctors InterConsultation process, an exclusive benefit available as part of his corporate heath insurance. IMMEDIATE IMPACT Dave s case was analyzed by the world s best specialist who discovered that he had been misdiagnosed. Instead of a life threatening tumor, Best Doctors discovered that Dave had a family history of Cavernous Hermangiomas, the real cause of his pain and numbness. The correct surgery was performed and the potential for severe complications was avoided. Today, Dave is back at work, pain free and enjoying a certainty that only Best Doctors can offer. Best Doctors empowers employees and their physicians to make the best health choices.

4 INTERNATIONAL MEDICAL COVERAGE LIKE NO OTHER Illness has no boundaries, medical care shouldn t either. That is why Best Doctors created international insurance plans to meet your specific corporate needs covering your employees locally and at the very best centers of excellence in the world.
