Most business travelers don't have to worry about the perils of crocodile bites, malaria and shrapnel wounds when they hit the road on behalf of their employers, but for the reporters, producers and photographers of National Geographic Television, these are very real considerations. It's no wonder then, that National Geographic Television provides MedjetAssist medical transportation memberships for almost 100 employees. These days, even companies with more traditional lines of business see the value in protecting employees who are frequent business travelers.
Annual memberships are available to residents of the United States, Canada and Mexico who travel domestically and internationally.
