The GeoBlue Trekker Essential is a multi-trip Medical plan which offers emergency medical coverage while you are traveling abroad. This plan covers trips up to 70 days in length (per trip) that you will be taking outside the country during the year. The Trekker Essential plan does require you to have primary health insurance in place, but there is no exclusion for pre-existing conditions. This plan has lower limits than the Trekker Choice plan.

GeoBlue Trekker Essential
I did not implement the plan, or should I say it wasn't needed, so I don't really know how user friendly it is but I traveled with a lighter heart thinking I was covered.

We've never filed a claim, so we haven't had to test that crucially important dimension of all insurance policies, but the coverage appears to be what we seek: medical evacuation from a foreign country in the event of a medical emergency. The medical coverages are second-tier after our primary insurance, which is our preference. The cost of the policy seems reasonable, and is, of course, much less than policies with first-tier medical status.

This plan offered medical coverage abroad without exclusions for pre-existing conditions. It was reasonable in cost, and I felt it to be of good value for the benefits its covered.
