Get the help you need, wherever you are
If you love to travel, you want to enjoy every moment of your trip. Accident and sickness coverage gives you reassurance that if an unexpected crisis happens, you’ve got help on call.
Plans that protect your health — and budget
The right plan offers support in a variety of ways. When a serious fall interrupted a traveler’s journey, his accident and sickness coverage ensured proper care, plus provided help with travel arrangements and an escort for a safe trip home.
On-the-road coverage, designed for travelers
Your everyday health insurance is tailored for medical expenses in your home country. Accident and sickness coverage is designed to protect you during short-term travel, giving you a backup plan during an overseas adventure.
Travel accident and sickness insurance, explained
What does travel accident insurance cover?
These plans protect you in case of an unexpected medical emergency during travel outside your home country, covering medical expenses, specialized transportation arrangements such as medical evacuation or medical escort, repatriation, emergency dental, baggage delay or loss and costs from trip interruptions — and may even include a 24/7 hotline for help with document issues like lost passports.
How does this coverage differ from personal health insurance?
Personal accident and sickness insurance covers you day-to-day in your home country. Travel accident and sickness plans, on the other hand, are tailored to cover you if incidents happen while you’re traveling beyond your country’s borders.
Does travel insurance cover illness?
Many general travel insurance plans do not automatically include health coverage for overseas travel, so be sure to double-check any plan you are considering, and look for information on accidents and illness specifically.
