Travel Insurance Reviews Travel Medical Plans
Most regular health insurance plans provide only partial or no coverage while you are traveling in another country. We offer several types of Travel Medical plans providing a range of benefits, such as medical coverage for pre-existing conditions, multi-trip and renewable protection, emergency medical evacuation, and coverage for long-term travel.
To learn more, see our Travel Medical Plans article.

I did use the medical center on the cruise ship, but I chose a higher deductible and my expense was less than that, so I did not file a claim. My main reason for getting this insurance was in case of a catastrophe and we needed medical evacuation. So thankful we didn't need to use this coverage.

Policy had all the options we needed. We didn't need to make a claim, but it helped us enjoy our trip without worry.

I purchased medical insurance only for our cruise. We are insured by Medicare and they don't pay outside the US. Several days into the cruise I was diagnosed with Pneumonia in the ships medical center. The treatment I received over three days cost nearly $9000. That charge was put on my credit card. I left the ship with all of the records of treatment and they were also emailed to me at home so I was able to submit the claim on line on March 6. I was told that it usually takes 4-6 weeks to process a claim. Fast forward 9 weeks and I am still waiting for them to begin processing. My account on their website indicates that I don't have a claim. Over the nine weeks I have spoken to at least 5 company representatives all of whom told me they are running behind. On April 9 I was told that my claim would be "expedited to claims". Today, May 9 I was told my claim would be "escalated to claims".
At this point in time I can't recommend this company. I will update if anything happens to change this opinion.
UPDATE TO THIS REVIEW.
On June 17 Seven Corners reimbursed me for the full amount of my of my claim minus the $1000. deductible that I had selected. Roughly 100 days after the claim was submitted. After I posted the original review I was contacted by a customer advocate from insuremytrip .com. She took over contacting Seven Corner and it was only a short time until the claim was settled. So all in all Seven Corners settled the claim to my satisfaction and Insuremytrip truly supports their customers

I did not mean to indicate that I would not recommend Seven Corners. At the end of the situation I would recommend them. They did what they were supposed to do. It just took longer than they said it would at first. So I do recommend them but Ii you buy insurance from them or possibly from anyone don't plan on a fast turnaround. Figure about 90 days.Jul 11,2019

Since I am on Medicare which does not cover me out of my provider location; I do need medical coverage when I go on vacation. My wife will also will need medical protection in a couple of years, when she turns 65 and goes on Medicare as well. We would be interested in travel medical insurance for a renewable period each year, which would also cover emergency transportation costs in case of a medical emergency, such as ambulance and air transportation. Does GeoBlue have an insurance policy that I have just mentioned? If so, I would be interested in looking at it. We travel frequently since we are both retired. Since we did not have any type of medical emergency on our trip, we did not have to make a claim, fortunately.

Thank you for your inquiry.
In some states, GeoBlue does offer the Trekker Essential and Choice plans which are multi-trip medical and emergency medical evacuation plans. The plans cover trips no longer than 70 days in length per trip that you will be taking outside the United States during a period of one year. Both Trekker plans also require you to have primary health insurance in place, but there is no exclusion for pre-existing conditions. With the Trekker Choice plan, the secondary medical limit is 100,000 USD with no deductible, while the Trekker Essential plan has a secondary medical limit of 50,000 USD and a 50 USD deductible.
If you would like our help in quoting and purchasing a plan, InsureMyTrip is open 7 days a week, 365 days a year, and our customer care representatives are licensed insurance agents who are able to recommend the most cost effective plans which will cover the travelers primary concerns.

I did not give the plan 5 stars for coverage as we did not use it....we had to cancel our trip for medical reasons. Insuremytrip gave us a 100% credit toward our next trip, and we are very appreciative. Thank you!

Thank you for this review. We certainly hope that your medical condition has improved and you will soon be back on your feet and planning another trip.
However, the premium credit you received was provided by AIG Travel Guard, your insurance provider, not InsureMyTrip.
