Every traveler should know this
The need to obtain a medical policy for traveling abroad will be indicated in the list of documents required for a visa. It is mandatory for visiting all Schengen area countries – without it, a traveler will not get entry permission. The border of countries where a visa is placed in the tourist's passport at the airport can be crossed without a policy. But is it worth neglecting medical insurance for citizens traveling abroad? It is recommended to take care of obtaining a policy in advance – it will help significantly save on medical services abroad.
When processing medical insurance for tourists, many nuances are taken into account, so the help of competent insurers will not be superfluous. Let us outline what to pay attention to:
• Correctly set the policy amount. It is better to choose insurance with an amount of 30,000 euros when traveling to African countries, Tunisia, Egypt and from 50,000 euros when wishing to visit Australia, the USA and Asia. In the event of an emergency, the victim must contact a company employee who will instruct on further actions. Compulsory medical insurance when traveling abroad guarantees reimbursement of material costs even if the tourist paid for treatment independently.
• Familiarize yourself with the policy terms. Find out what expenses the policy covers. This may include first aid, hospitalization, emergency surgery, dental services, specialist consultation, and transportation to the hospital.
• Choose the type of coverage wisely. It is recommended to take out a service-type insurance rather than a compensation-type. Such a medical insurance contract when traveling abroad guarantees that medical costs will be reimbursed on the spot. In the case of a compensation-type, upon arrival home.
When familiarizing yourself with the document, you must pay attention to the clause defining the territory of the insurance. It is also worth remembering that there are a number of countries (Great Britain and others) that have concluded an agreement with the Russian Federation on mutual emergency medical care, which is provided free of charge. When visiting these countries, it is not mandatory to take out medical insurance for travelers abroad, but it is advisable due to the limited nature of the basic program.
