Travel Insurance Reviews: How do I choose the right company?
Travel insurance reviews of Canada's most experienced long-term travellers, members of the Canadian Snowbirds Association, have indicated that comprehensive coverage followed by low rates and ease of purchase as the most important attributes to consider when purchasing a travel medical insurance plan.
What the travel insurance reviews did not review, however, was the importance of the medical emergency assistance services that support the travel insurance plan.
Travel Insurance: Emergency Assistance Services
Travel insurance emergency assistance services is a topic that rarely is discussed by other travel insurance providers and is hardly found in marketing materials. There is a reason for this; most travel medical insurance plans outsource these critical services to disinterested third parties where your calls for assistance may be answered by "call-center clerks".
