Why Use Travel Medical Insurance?
Make sure your medical bills are covered
Your health care bills for a medical condition or accident will be paid for up to your selected coverage amount. In some countries, medical care providers require a Guarantee of Payment or a wire transfer; our coverage addresses these sort of needs so you get care right away.
Quality care, without delay
Specialists are available 24/7 through our Emergency Response Center, and can help you identify the best care for your needs as well as the best place for you to receive it. If the right care isn’t nearby, medical evacuation can cover medical transportation costs including ground or air ambulance to a quality hospital or center of medical excellence.
Bringing you home safely
If you get sick, or are injured while on your trip in a way that prevents you from continuing your travel as planned, our medical repatriation coverage allows for arrangement and payment for the appropriate transportation for your situation.
Go big without worry
If you’re an adventurer, your vacation might include a little extra thrills in the mix. Whether you have extra-active plans or are headed into rugged terrain, our add-on Extreme Sports coverage includes mountain climbing, parachuting and more.
