Why Buy Travel Medical Insurance?
It’s better to be safe than sorry when traveling abroad.
You may have robust health insurance, but odds are it will help very little (often not at all) while out of the country. Travel Medical insurance can cover unexpected costs that your health insurance won’t.
Travel Protection for Individuals and Groups
Select from a variety of Trip Protection and Travel Medical plans and MedJet Global Medical Transport memberships.
Emergency medical coverage is included with some comprehensive travel insurance policies, but can also be purchased on its own. Stand-alone Travel Medical insurance helps cover the cost of many emergency medical treatments during a trip. If you’re traveling and have an unexpected illness, medical condition, or covered injury, you’ll typically be reimbursed up to the plan limits.
We’ve partnered with GeoBlue to bring you Travel Medical insurance that provides:
- Access to care. A mobile app helps you locate care anywhere in the world, offers access to unlimited telemedicine visits, provides medicine equivalents, alerts you to local security and health issues, and more. An in-house medical assistance team is always just a click or call away, 24/7/365.
- Reimbursement for emergency medical expenses. This includes ambulance service, doctor and hospital bills, x-rays, prescription medications, and more.2
- Medically necessary evacuations. These can cost thousands of dollars out-of-pocket and are typically not covered by your U.S. medical plan.
