Included in Emergency Medical
Coronavirus Medical can reimburse the medical costs a traveler incurs in the event they contract the coronavirus during a trip. While many providers consider virus outbreaks to be foreseen after they become publicly known, certain providers do not assign a foreseen date to contracting a virus, meaning they can cover the medical costs to treat a traveler who contracts a virus while on their trip. This coverage is only available if a provider does not consider contracting a virus to be foreseen.
