Frequently Asked Questions

Are there any age limits on a travel policy?

Age limits vary between policies however most policies will cover travellers up to 75 years old. Travellers older than 75 years may usually be covered subject to medical certification and on reduced benefits.

Is there a choice of cover?

Most policies offer at least a choice of two levels of cover. One would usually have higher limits than the other and possibly additional benefits. A higher premium would be charged for the more comprehensive level.

Who do I call in the event of an emergency overseas?

Various underwriters use different international emergency providers. You will be provided with the emergency contact details upon arrangement of your insurance cover.

What information will I need to contact Medical Rescue?

You will need to know the dates of the outward and return journey, the exact nature of the emergency and you must have access to a contact number so that you may be contacted back as required.
