An international trip can quickly become costly if something unexpected arises during your stay, such as sickness or injury. Travel medical insurance offers an economical and comprehensive way to safeguard against such costs.

Some U.S. health plans don't provide coverage outside the country, while Medicare offers only minimal protection. Discover the costs and benefits associated with this vital coverage option.

Costs
Travel medical insurance at Auras Insure can be an affordable way to both save money and reduce stress when traveling abroad. Policy costs depend on factors like where you're visiting, your age, coverage options and deductible amounts; but, generally speaking, a basic travel medical policy typically costs less than $50 per trip and provides emergency coverage such as X-rays or ambulance service as well as trip interruption and evacuation costs, like Maria did after suffering leg fracture.

Many travel medical policies offer riders that can help you save money on food, attractions and activities while adding features like lost luggage or trip cancellation coverage for an additional cost. Although adding these features might increase the overall price of a policy, they're an investment worth making to avoid unpleasant surprises on your next journey.

Coverage
Travel medical insurance provides emergency hospitalizations, doctor and dentist office visits, ambulance rides, X-rays and other common services as well as providing ambulance rides. In some plans they also include limited pre-approved prescription coverage or dental coverage.

Travel medical insurance policies often feature various medical coverage limits, deductible options, and riders for hazardous sports or special needs. Policy pricing depends on several factors, including age, trip cost and coverage level; premiums for travel health insurance typically range between $1 per day to $2 per day.

Most domestic health insurance providers do not cover expenses incurred while traveling overseas; Medicare doesn't either. Travel medical insurance provides valuable coverage for those unable to access healthcare systems overseas on their own or who face language or currency barriers that prevent them from receiving necessary treatment.

Most plans also feature 24/7 phone assistance that can assist travelers in locating and scheduling required healthcare services while traveling abroad. For instance, should someone experience knee discomfort while away, Seven Corners representative can coordinate with a hospital to arrange knee replacement surgery if required. Overall, our goal is to give travelers peace of mind while away by offering affordable health coverage which will ease anxiety over unexpected costs.

Pre-existing conditions
Many are taken aback when they discover that domestic health insurance provides limited (or no) coverage when traveling overseas. As medical costs can be prohibitively expensive abroad, insufficient coverage could leave travelers exposed financially if emergency care needs arise abroad. Travel medical insurance should therefore be purchased for travelers with preexisting conditions to protect themselves financially in such an instance.

Pre-existing conditions may impede an individual's ability to obtain travel medical insurance, and the process varies by insurer. Some plans offer look-back periods while others cover them through waivers or look-back periods. Trip duration also plays a factor as longer trips usually require higher limits or costlier policies.

Key finance-related terms to keep in mind include deductibles and coinsurance, which refer to the percentage of eligible expenses you must cover before your insurance company will start covering them. Seven Corners offers various plans with various coverage levels and deductible options; please read your plan details closely to make sure it suits your needs - some plans require a $10,000 medical deductible payment before any eligible expenses will be covered; other plans don't even impose one!
