Will my policy cover me if I am out of the country longer than planned?

Ask your provider what happens to your Emergency Medical and/or Trip Interruption coverage if you are stuck in another country beyond the date that your coverage would normally expire due to COVID-19 and ask if you will be able to purchase a coverage extension if you are delayed or want to extend your trip.

It’s important to remember that your coverage will end at midnight on the last day of your covered days or the last day of your insured trip and not all coverage has an option for extension.  Travel insurance does not cover expenses incurred after your coverage has ended unless your return home was delayed by a previous and covered medical emergency or any automatic extension provision that might be in your policy.

KNOW YOUR POLICY – Contact your provider for more details.
