Travel Insurance Reviews Travel Medical Plans

Most regular health insurance plans provide only partial or no coverage while you are traveling in another country. We offer several types of Travel Medical plans providing a range of benefits, such as medical coverage for pre-existing conditions, multi-trip and renewable protection, emergency medical evacuation, and coverage for long-term travel.

I never had to use my insurance while on my trip to Costa Rica, so I am not entirely sure if it would have covered everything I would have needed it to cover, but it was nice to know that I did have something should I have needed any medical care.

Felt confident that my medical needs would be covered while traveling. The real test would have been making a claim, which fortunately I did not have to do.

I have used this plan for 10 years and although I've never had to file a claim, I feel better knowing they have my "back" and will be there to assist if I should need them. I travel internationally a great deal and will continue to use HCC.

Since we didn't need to use the coverage, my review will be based on customer service. I called IMG to make a few changes after original purchase. They could not have been more helpful and were so easy to work with. I strongly recommend this service though I hope to avoid using the benefits provided!

Sure but didn't file claim so can't say anyting about that. The company should state clearly that the policy's final cost will depend on the ages of the persons being insured upfront. I was surprised at the final cost but it was explained by the rep, not without some "that should have been obvious" feelings being tossed my way. Anyhow, would use the company again without reservation because as I was backing over the waterfall 160 feet in the air wrapped in a rope, I actually thought about how pleased I was that I was insured in this far-away country!! Enjoy your travels!

    Hi John, I'm sorry to hear one of our Customer Service Agents made you feel you should've known, this is not told until you input your date of birth on the buy page. We will be working on trying to get this information more upfront. Most of our plans go by your age at time of purchase not at time of travel. Hope you had a great trip.

One cannot really judge an insurance plan until one needs to make a claim, so the 4-stars are with the assumptions that had I needed to make a claim, the process and coverage would have been as I understood it from the information provided. But, how often is that true with insurance companies.
