What is coverage repatriation ? I am trying to take a vacation cruise to Europe.
I do have medical Insurance in US and covers out side US by later claiming for it . Do I still need coverage repatriation and Medical Insurance . If yes how do I apply and whats a good travel insurance company ?
I am an Indian Citizen with a Green Card.
Coverage repatriation is that they will transport you home if you are ill, wounded or death when abroad.
Yes, it is very important.
If you hurt your back you can have to buy 4 seats in a plane so you can be transported flat, at the highest prices as they will need to find a transport when you need it, not three months from then.
I hope you do not need it, but when you need it it will save you a lot of money, likely money which you do not have at that time.
All insurance companies that do travel insurance will offer, often as standard part of the coverage, repatriation.
I think it is worth to have the medical insurance as well, it will only be a few more dollars on a holiday that will cost a small fortune, and it buys peace of mind.
I often buy my travel insurance at a travel agency, but you can also try your regular insurance company.
I do not know which is a good one there as I live in Europe.
