When booking a cruise or buying a tour abroad, air tickets, hotel accommodation, etc., travel insurance is no less important. The costs of receiving medical care abroad are disproportionately higher than the cost of an insurance policy.
And in order not to spend money on a doctor’s services, if something unpleasant happens, it’s easier and cheaper to purchase insurance.
Moreover, without travel insurance you will not be able to obtain a visa, and in some cases, enter the country. Additional types of insurance may also be useful, for example, loss of luggage, flight, loss of departure, etc.
By the way, in my travel experience there were two cases when medical assistance was required. I talked about them in the video below.
Travel insurance for traveling abroad
Travel insurance is, first of all, your confidence and protection from unforeseen circumstances while traveling. No matter how experienced we are and how meticulously we prepare for the voyage, it is impossible to foresee everything. That’s what travel insurance is for.
Insurance for Schengen visa
To obtain a Schengen visa, a basic insurance option is sufficient. Let’s take a closer look at what it includes.
- First of all, health insurance. After contacting the service center (assistant), they will find you the nearest medical facility and provide assistance. It can be either inpatient or outpatient. The policy will cover the cost of medications prescribed by a doctor. You can also get quality advice by phone.
- You don’t have to think about transportation costs. The patient will be transported by ambulance or taxi to the hospital.
- Provide dental care for acute toothache.
- If necessary, they will deliver children home if the insured person is hospitalized for a long time.
There are a number of separate insurance services that are purchased in addition to the basic option:
- Insurance against non-departure,
- Luggage insurance,
- Flight delay or cancellation,
- Legal assistance,
- Maternity insurance,
More details about the features of insurance can be found on the websites of companies that provide additional services.
