Because most people are covered under other forms of insurance they may have, should travelers purchase additional insurance? If so, why?

Published by Chris Harvey May 7th, 2008

Check to see exactly what cover you have. What you think you have and what you actually have are usually very different. i.e. a domestic health plan may provide cover abroad but upon further examination it may be limited to only certain countries and only emergencies.
