The Good: A single-trip travel medical plan for individuals and families from the U.S. heading abroad. Ideal for travelers under age 75. Choose your deductible and your medical limits and save on your premium.
The Drawbacks: Dental benefits are limited. Medical benefits for adventure activities are also limited.
The Bottom Line:Â This is a good all-around travel medical insurance plan that does not require a primary health plan.
