FrontierMEDEX Travel Insurance

Editor Review of FrontierMEDEX

frontiermedex

The Good: FrontierMEDEX has specialized in travel medical insurance plans and medical evacuation plans for over 30 years. They offer full-featured, worldwide travel medical protections for U.S. and non U.S. citizens. The TravMed Abroad plan offers full benefits for travelers up to age 85, which is rare in the industry. Several plans can be enhanced with trip cancellation, interruption, and luggage benefits to create a more full-featured travel insurance plan.

The Drawbacks: Extremely limited coverage for pre-existing medical conditions across the FrontierMEDEX plans.

The Bottom Line: FrontierMEDEX delivers comprehensive short-term and annual accident and illness insurance, emergency evacuation, repatriation, and worldwide 24-hour medical assistance for travelers. Some travel medical policies can be enhanced with package benefits such as trip cancellation, interruption, and lost luggage. They also deliver two useful medevac plans for students and other travelers.
