Travel Insurance FAQ
Here are some common questions we get about travel insurance. If you still have questions, please don’t hesitate to ask us!
Is Travel Insurance worth it?
In most cases your travels with go without a hitch. You will not have to experience the nightmare of being seriously ill or injured in a foreign country. But if you do, the last thing you want is not having the support or financial means by which to get treated and flown home.
For that alone, you may find travel insurance is worth every cent.
How Much Travel Insurance do I need?
No matter where you are travelling, there are 3 things your travel insurance should cover –
- Medical Evacuation – make sure your policy covers medical evacuation to Canada or to the nearest place with appropriate medical care. It should also cover the cost of a medical escort to travel with you back to your home.
- Pre-existing Medical Conditions – Limitations and restrictions may apply depending on your condition. You must have no changes to your medical condition, or changes to your medication for a set amount of time.
- Repatriation in case of death – Make sure the plan covers the prep and return of your remains to Canada.
What does Travel Insurance Cover?
Most travel Insurance plans cover Medical emergencies, Emergency Medical Evacuations and Accidental Death & Dismemberment. You can also purchase trip cancellation, trip Interruptions, Flight cancellation/travel delay and lost or stolen luggage.
What is Not Covered by Travel Insurance
As with auto Insurance, there are exclusions on all policies. For example, benefits are not payable for loss or cost incurred due to motorized speed contest, stunt activities, high risk activities, mountain climbing or rock climbing, and most extreme sports.
Is there Travel Insurance for Pre-existing conditions?
A common exclusion in travel insurance plans is for pre-existing medical conditions. This exclusion relates to medical conditions that existed before the effective date of your policy. Exclusions such as these are in place because an incident while on holiday that is related to a medical condition you had previously, is not considered unexpected, sudden, or unforeseen. If there has been no new treatment, no new symptoms or diagnosis, no test results showing deterioration, no hospitalizations, or referrals to a specialist, you can purchase coverage. A visit to the Doctor might be required before your trip begins.
**Not all travel insurance is the same**
All travel insurance policies have specific benefits and exclusions so it’s common sense, imperative, and absolutely necessary to take the time to read the policy wording carefully. These vary depending on which country you are from, so please take the time and always contact us if you are unsure about anything.
