The medical travel insurance for travelling abroad
There are all sorts of reasons why people travel abroad for extended periods. People go backpacking, make a world tour, leave to work in another country for several months, or want to experience another way of life. If you are planning on travelling abroad for an extended period, you may need a good medical travel insurance, or in other words, health insurance.
Not the standard travel insurance
The Global Traveler Health Insurance from OOM Verzekeringen is not your standard medical travel insurance. This insurance takes into consideration the fact that you will be abroad for an extended period. In addition to emergency medical aid (such as hospitalisation or medical examination), we also, for instance, provide compensation for non-urgent treatment abroad, such as physiotherapy, and under the extensive coverage policy, alternative medicine. If local medical treatment is unavailable and it is not possible to receive treatment at a later time, we also provide compensation for the costs of travel to your country of origin, or to the closest place where treatment is available.
A summary of our policy terms and conditions is available in the coverage summary as well as the specifications of the coverage.
Luggage and valuables
Because our Health Insurance is not a standard travel insurance, we also offer a more regular travel insurance that you can purchase separately or in addition to the Health Insurance. This insurance includes, for instance, loss or theft of your baggage. Moreover, under this insurance you are able to purchase extra coverage for your valuables, such as an iPad or camera. The travel insurance does not cover medical costs.
