Acute onset coverage applies to sudden and unexpected recurrences of pre-existing conditions that are not chronic, for which no ongoing medication was being taken, and that occur without warning, requiring immediate medical attention. Whether a medical situation is classified as an acute onset of a pre-existing condition is determined by the attending physician.
Some travel insurance plans, like the CoverAmerica - Gold plan, provide coverage for acute onset of pre-existing conditions. For example, this plan offers up to $30,000 in acute onset coverage for eligible pre-existing conditions for travelers up to age 79.
It’s important to review the specific policy brochure and description of coverage to understand the detailed terms and limits of acute onset coverage. For assistance in selecting a plan or learning more, contact us at support@visitorscoverage.com or call 1-866-384-9104.
