Claims & 24/7 Emergency

What to do in a medical emergency

The 24-Hour Emergency Service is available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year for assistance with medical emergencies. Please note that this is not for casual enquiries.

You must notify the Assistance Service immediately of any serious illness or injury whilst abroad which necessitates admittance to a hospital as an in-patient, or before any arrangements are made for repatriation. A travelling companion may do this for you although most hospitals have a set procedure in place.

The Assistance Service is able to help you with:

  • Paying hospital and medical bills
  • Repatriation to your home country after a serious accident or illness if medically necessary
  • Rescheduling of disrupted travel plans
  • Replacement of lost tickets, passports or travel documents
  • Urgent messages to your family
  • Giving guidance and help to other members of the party
  • Interpreters in non English speaking overseas hospitals

As with other travel insurance policies, this insurance does not cover treatment or surgery which in the opinion of the Insurers is not essential or can reasonably be delayed until the Insured returns to their usual country of residence.

Travellers planning to stay in the United States (not Canada) for 365 days or more: Following recent healthcare reforms in the United States we are unable to insure travellers who are planning to be in the United States (not Canada) for 365 days or more.

Will you be travelling to countries outside of the USA & Canada?

If you plan to visit the USA or Canada more than once during your trip, please calculate the total number of days you will be there. Then enter the date leaving USA or Canada as the total number of days from the date arriving. For example: You will be in the US from 1st March to 31st March (31 days) and 10th October to 26th October (17 days) = 48 days in total. So you would have a start date of 1st March and an end date of 17th April. Ie 48 days. You will receive your certificate in an email, so simply reply to the email advising the correct dates of travel within USA or Canada and we will endorse the policy accordingly. Following healthcare reforms in the US we cannot insure travellers who are planning to stay in the USA (not Canada) for 365 days or more.
