What happens in the event of an injury or illness that demands immediate medical attention?
Travel insurance covers you for doctor visits, hospitalization, surgery, and prescription drugs and sickness or injury that occurs during the journey. If you already have a health problem or an injury/illness that you acquired before the start of your trip, the medical costs to treat this ailment will not be covered by your visitor insurance plan. Most plans will also cover the expense of transportation to a medical facility or hospital.
