Travel Insurance

Whether you are traveling for business or for leisure, it is always recommended to purchase travel medical insurance. Travel insurance is designed to protect you in the event you become ill or have an accident while traveling. It’s important to purchase travel insurance before you travel.

Coverage Considerations

Make sure the coverage includes emergency evacuation and repatriation. This will help cover the cost of transporting you back to your home country should you become ill or injured.
Review the assistance with lost luggage and passports – some policies offer this benefit. Most coverage will typically offer support in the event of a natural disaster or security event.

Who Should Buy Travel Insurance?

Anyone planning a trip outside of their home country, including students, business travelers and individuals traveling for personal reasons. Additionally, any individuals with pre-existing health conditions should purchase travel insurance.
