Does Travel medical insurance provide coverage for Emergency Room and Urgent Care?
Answer provided by a licensed Insurance advisorLicensed U.S. Insurance Specialist at VisitorsCoverage
Yes, travel insurance is intended to cover new and unexpected injuries and illness. As long as the visit isn't because of a pre-existing condition, E.R and urgent care visits are covered. Keep in mind, an acute onset of a pre-existing condition is covered only by certain plans. We recommend the following plan if acute onset of pre-existing conditions is a concern for you: Cover America - Gold plan, which provides coverage for acute onset of pre-existing conditions. For age 69 and under, the plan covers acute onset up to the coverage limit, and up to $30,000 for people age 70-79.
