Visitor Insurance Plan

Are you planning to travel outside your home country? Whether you plan to travel internationally for a few months or a few years, you may want to consider purchasing a visitor insurance plan. There is nothing like being outside your home country while you get sick or injured, especially if you are unfamiliar with the health care system. Instead, protect yourself and family members by purchasing a visitor insurance plan that will cover you while overseas for doctor visits, hospitalization, emergency medical evacuation, repatriation, prescription medications, etc.

By doing this, you are ensuring that you will be able to seek the treatment in case the unexpected happens. It is important to consider what type of coverage you are looking for – do you want a standalone emergency medical evacuation and repatriation plan, a travel health insurance plan to cover you outside your home country, or a comprehensive annually renewable health insurance plan? By deciding on the type of visitor insurance plan you are looking for, you will be able to narrow down your choices.

Most international policies also provide travel and medical assistance that is invaluable. Before purchasing an insurance plan, make sure that the assistance is 24 hours and check before to see if there is an international number. Whether you need pre-trip health and safety advisories, medical referrals, embassy or consulate referrals, a number of plans offer an array of services. Some plans even assist with translations and interpretations, bail bonds, and lost passport/travel documents! Contact one of our licensed agents to see our our visitor insurance plan can help you!
