Patriot Travel Medical Insurance provides temporary medical insurance to individuals, families, and groups who travel for business or pleasure outside of their own country.
If you aren’t prepared for a medical emergency while traveling, it may rapidly become a frightening situation. The majority of consumers think they will be covered by their regular medical insurance, but this isn’t always the case. While traditional plans may provide adequate domestic coverage, they aren’t built to cover international travel. You may be unwittingly putting your health in danger without even realizing it.
Take advantage of one of IMG’s two Patriot Travel Medical Insurance plans to reduce stress and worry about medical coverage while traveling abroad.
