Editor Review
The Good: Short-term travel medical and accident coverage for groups of five or more travelers who want to qualify for a lower rate. This plan is ideal for trips up to 6 months and for travelers age 85 or younger.
The Drawbacks: Medical benefits for adventure activities are limited. Requires a health plan.
The Bottom Line: This is a good all-round travel medical plan for groups of travelers traveling together for work, for study, volunteering duties, or leisure. The plan offers coverage limit options and deductible options that help control premium costs for travelers.
