What’s included with SafeTrip Travel Protection Plans

Insurance Benefits

Description

Accident and Sickness Medical Expense Coverage

 We can cover your medical bills

While traveling, your medical bills for health and accident costs can be covered up to the maximum amount of coverage you select when purchasing your plan, less any selected deductible amount. When your sickness or injury is covered (and no exclusions or limitations apply), depending on the circumstances, we may issue a Guarantee of Payment or make a wire transfer to the facility at the time of service, or you may cover smaller costs, and submit a claim for reimbursement after your travels.

Emergency Medical Evacuation

We can help get you to the best care

In a medical emergency, our medical specialists can help assess the best care for your needs, and the best place to deliver it.  If the right care isn’t available locally, medical evacuation can cover the cost of specialist medical transportation, whether ground or air ambulance, to a credentialed hospital or center of medical excellence.

Baggage Return

 Get your baggage back to you

Personal belongings may not always be able to go with you on an air ambulance.  When you are unable to take your baggage with you during a covered transport, the plan covers expenses incurred to get your baggage back to you.

Service Animal Return

 Don’t forget about Fido

If you are hospitalized and unable to travel, the plan covers expenses incurred to get your service animal home.
