About AccessHMO

International Health Insurance & Medicare Guidance

AccessHMO helps individuals and families understand international health insurance, review existing coverage and consider how Medicare fits with life abroad.

Founded by Samuel Fleischman, a licensed health insurance intermediary since 1989, our business combines U.S. insurance experience with practical knowledge of European healthcare systems. We provide personal guidance on Cigna Global and suitable alternatives from Allianz Care, AXA Global Healthcare and Bupa Global, depending on your circumstances and eligibility.

Our approach considers benefits, premiums, deductibles, provider access and long-term renewability, helping you understand the choices before making a decision.

Meet Samuel Fleischman

Founder of AccessHMO

Samuel Fleischman has been a licensed health insurance intermediary since 1989. His career began in New York and Florida, working with individual and employer-sponsored health insurance.

In 2001, his international work expanded to the Czech Republic, helping address the health insurance needs of foreign residents. This included pioneering work on private health insurance solutions in cooperation with VZP.
 

Today, Samuel brings that experience to clients comparing international health insurance, reviewing existing policies and considering Medicare alongside healthcare abroad. His approach combines personal attention, clear explanations and advocacy when discussing individual circumstances with insurers.

Cigna Global

and Other International Health Insurance Options

Our relationship with Cigna and its predecessor organizations spans approximately 35 years. We help clients understand Cigna Global benefits, geographical coverage, deductibles and application requirements.

We also compare suitable options from Allianz Care, AXA Global Healthcare and Bupa Global. Available products depend on your country of residence, eligibility and the intermediary authorized to arrange the insurance.

Our review takes account of insurance you already have, including employer coverage, Medicare and public or private healthcare arrangements. We consider potential gaps, overlapping benefits and renewal protections. Where appropriate, we can also advocate for an underwriting review; acceptance and policy terms remain the insurer’s decision.

U.S. and European Experience

AccessHMO LLC is based in Miami, Florida. European insurance services are provided through our separately licensed sister company, Hamilton Hudson s.r.o., where authorized.

Our experience includes helping international clients navigate healthcare and insurance with Ali Al agents based in the United States, Czech Republic, and Portugal. Before an application proceeds, we explain which intermediary and insurer will handle the proposed coverage.

Find Doctors and Hospitals Abroad

Our country guides provide practical information about hospitals, clinics and doctors to help you explore healthcare options abroad.

We also help you understand what to confirm before planned treatment, including policy coverage, provider participation, preauthorization and direct billing. A directory listing does not itself guarantee coverage or payment.

Medicare Guidance for Americans Living or Traveling Abroad

We help Medicare-eligible Americans consider their U.S. benefits alongside international health insurance, including questions about Medicare Supplement coverage, Medicare Advantage and maintaining coverage when living abroad.

We also advocate for broader access to Medicare benefits overseas and follow relevant legislative proposals. We distinguish proposed changes from benefits currently available.
