Travel Insurance
Insurance companies offer a range of options when it comes to travel insurance
Travel insurance can cover you in the event of illness or accident while you are on holidays or travelling. If you are travelling within the EU you should ensure that you have a European Health Insurance Card. Travel Insurance should supplement the services that are available to you if you have a European Health Insurance Card.
Your health should be one of your priorities when planning a trip abroad. Today, more and more Irish citizens are travelling internationally for professional, recreational, social and humanitarian reasons. Given we are travelling greater distances and to a wide variety of countries, sometimes this can expose our health to risks in often unfamiliar environments. Hopefully, your trip abroad will be free of any health scares, but you need to be prepared to meet every eventuality. Most of the health risks associated with travel can be minimized by suitable precautions taken before, during and after your trip. Coping with illness is difficult at the best of times and it can appear even worse when you are far from home. You should ensure that you have taken every possible precaution to avoid such a scenario and, if the worst comes to the worst, you should be confident that you have organised the necessary insurance to pay for the medical care you require. Beware of the false comfort that credit card travel insurance cover can provide when on holiday or business.The fact is that credit cards are limited cover instruments at the best of times. They are a token means of travel insurance when all is said and done and of all travel insurance policies available they have the most get-out clauses or activity exclusions.
