What does emergency medical expenses cover protect against?

Fundamentally, your travel insurance covers the cost of emergency treatment you receive abroad, but you may also find cover that helps with some associated costs including;

  • Repatriation: Returning you to your home or to a hospital or nursing home in your home country, if this is medically necessary.
  • Transport and Accommodation: Reasonable extra transport and accommodation costs for you and one other person who stays with or travels with you, or travels to you from your home country, on medical advice.
  • Search and Rescue: Mountain search and rescue services when medically necessary.
  • Hospital inconvenience: Compensation paid for unused accommodation and other travel expenses you have lost.
