Travel Health Insurance

Travel Health Insurance

Your health insurance in the U.S. does not have a passport. In most cases, your domestic plan will not cover you once you leave the country—or it will cover very little. That means if you have an accident or illness abroad, you could be left with large bills and no support.

Travel Health Insurance (also called Travel Medical Insurance) is designed to step in and protect you overseas. It typically covers emergency accidents and illnesses, urgent care visits, ER and hospital stays, medical evacuation, and even repatriation back home.

Think of it this way: your U.S. health plan works fine for a check-up at home, but it won’t help if you break a leg hiking in Peru or need an emergency appendectomy in Italy. Travel Medical Insurance makes sure you’re protected when those unexpected events happen abroad.
