We at HCCMIS believe that customers are people first and are constantly looking for ways in which we can connect on a more personal level with both our current customers and those interested in our services. In order to achieve this “personal touch,” we have taken the road formerly less traveled by companies in our industry.

In a recent article in the Houston Business Journal titled, “Old-line companies turn to social media for marketing,” HCC Medical Insurance Services (HCCMIS) is noted for engaging our clients in a more contemporary method – through the use of social media.

HCCMIS is currently active on Twitter, Facebook, FastPitch, Linkedin, and our blog. We are also working towards becoming more active on You Tube and Wikipedia.

Rather than just pushing you, the consumer, to “buy, buy, buy” through our social media accounts, we’ve opted to use them as a tools to update you on news and fun facts in both the travel and health sectors. We feel that engaging and following up with our “fans” and followers allows us to get in touch with what you want and need first, then work on finding the most appropriate policy to match those needs.

We’re also using social media as a way to connect with you on a service level. If any questions or issues arise, we want you to feel comfortable talking to us about it. Some people feel more at ease doing this in the world of social media, so we are doing our best to comply with that.

We hope that our efforts in spending more time conversing with you through these methods will both enhance your experience with HCCMIS and allow us to focus on assisting you with your true needs.

When you’ve worked for a company that requires you and your team of engineers to travel around the world as much as my mine did, you know you need to look out for your people.  This was what happened when I was put in charge of all travel arrangements for my boss, the engineers and also the sales associates in the Spanish Company I had worked for. Affordable international coverage, costing as little as $1 a day per person, was definitely the best thing I learned about and took care of whenever we traveled.

We were in Vietnam sometime in 1995 and there were riots because a civil war had started.  Even though we were told that we were safe in the hotel, there was one afternoon in which we were hurriedly evacuated from the hotel due to more unrest in the country.  In the midst of all the turmoil I came down with a high fever and because of my travel insurance and their co-ordination with the hospital there, I was evacuated from Vietnam by helicopter, paid by the insurance company.  Whether you are traveling for vacation or business, never leave home without Travel Health Insurance from www.mnui.com, you can never be too sure about tomorrow and you need to be prepared.

I’m about to sleep coz it’s almost 2am here already. But I just read in a site (www.mnui.com) about the importance of travel health insurance or international travel insurance in general, so I’ll write my thoughts about it before finally going to bed. Indeed, travel insurance is very important since we can’t really predict the situations or happenings that will occur during our travel, especially with our health, so we better be safe and be insured. During my work days in Denmark and Norway, my hostfamilies availed a health insurance for me, so I can avail of free check-up and other health privileges.

Now that I am already here in Spain, I don’t have a health insurance yet. But once my papers are ok, then my employers will also start processing my health insurance. I am also excited to have it coz I want to avail of the free check-up since I am feeling something with my body lately. So, I need to visit a doctor to have a health check.
