Many U.S. health insurance plans do not<\/em> cover care overseas. If you slip, get the flu, or need treatment for an existing condition, travel medical insurance can cover hospital stays, prescriptions, and emergency evacuation.<\/p>\n

Think of insurance as a safety net when delays happen:<\/p>\n\n
