Travel Medical Insurance plans typically cover new sicknesses, injuries, or accidents that occur after the policy's effective date while the insured is outside their home country. A sudden increase in blood pressure may be covered if it's not related to a pre-existing condition. However, if the insured has chronic high blood pressure and takes medication to control it, an increase would likely not be covered unless the insured has a plan that covers pre-existing conditions. These plans do not cover preventative care services, including voluntary checkups and screenings.
