Travel
insurance plan
requirements
vary and the
timing
of your purchase
can affect coverage.
Some insurance
providers require
that for coverage
of pre-existing
conditions, a
policy
must be purchased
within 7-14 days
of booking. Others,
like CSA
Travel Protection,
offer policies
that include
coverage for
pre-existing
conditions
as
long as the
policy
is purchased
prior
to making your
final payment
for the tour.
Additional
requirements
apply. CSA
Travel Protection will
provide a refund of
your plan cost if you
cancel your plan within
10 days of purchase
and have not filed a
claim or departed on
your trip.
Pay
attention to coverages
provided. Be aware
of the requirements
of country or
destination can
change, so check
often. Some policies
are now offering
Covid related
coverages so check
with your insurer.
US
medical insurance
plans (including
Medicare) often
do not provide
coverage outside
the US. The US
State Department
strongly advises
Americans to consult
with their medical
insurance company
prior to traveling
abroad to confirm
whether their
policy applies
overseas and if
it will cover
emergency expenses
such as a medical
evacuation. Consult
with your insurer
prior to your
trip to ascertain
whether payment
will be made to
the overseas healthcare
provider directly
or whether you
will be reimbursed
later for expenses
that you incur.
Be sure to get
and keep all documentation
of any expenses
incurred.
