An emergency medical evacuation from overseas can easily cost upwards of $100,000 or more. Many domestic health plans do include some foreign medical emergency travel benefits however coverage may be limited, include heavy copays or deductibles, and may not pay for emergency medical transportation.
Example: A Medicare Supplement plan that includes Foreign Medical Emergency benefits provides a $50,000 lifetime maximum benefit and provides reimbursement of 80% of your foreign emergency medical expenses. There is also a $250 deductible per occurrence. That is simply not enough coverage.
That's why this is the perfect plan for those who have reached the age where they now have the time to travel. Whether you are knocking out two, three, four or more destinations a year off of your bucket list or you just want the peace of mind in knowing you have year round travel emergency coverage, you won't find a better value than GeoBlue Trekker Essential
