Why Buy Travel Medical Insurance?
As an international traveler the thrill of going abroad is extraordinary. Your new surroundings are amazing, you're involved in new and exciting experiences and you may be visiting places for the first time. However, your domestic health insurance program is of little value when traveling abroad. Emergencies happen when you least expect it. Travel Medical insurance provides coverage for an unexpected illness and accident, Emergency Evacuation, Lost Baggage and much more. Plus, we offer 24-hour Traveler Assistance Service to help with any emergecny situations that may arise during your trip.
