Telephone and email support
For more urgent medical advice, InterHealth nurses and doctors are available to TravelWell Plan subscribers via email, which we aim to answer within 24 hours, and through our telephone Advice Line which runs from 2-3pm every working day.

Travel Health Advice Centre (THAC)
Whilst overseas, volunteers, expeditioners and staff will have access to our online Travel Health Advice Centre.
We encourage travellers to use our Travel Health Advice Centre and to take a copy of InterHealth’s Travel Health Pocket Guide published by Berlitz. Together these two resources help to prevent illness and to guide individuals on the best course of action if illness strikes.
If more advice is needed, individual subscribers are able to email staff at InterHealth, where we aim to answer within 24 hours, or in case of emergency to use our 24/7 emergency phone line.
