COVID-19 Risk and Coverage
The risk of contracting COVID 19 continues to be high in many places around the world and it is important for people living overseas or traveling overseas to make sure they have coronavirus insurance coverage. Some people have been surprised to learn that their international or travel health insurance policy does not include pandemic insurance coverage. Understanding your health insurance policy’s coverage is vital because COVID 19 treatment can be expensive. According to a recent report by FAIR Health, a 6-day inpatient stay for someone without insurance to get treatment of coronavirus symptoms averages $73,300. Even outpatient & ER treatment of COVID 19 symptoms can easily reach tens of thousands of dollars. Consequently, if you are an expatriate or traveling overseas, you’ll want to be sure that your health insurance policy includes coronavirus insurance coverage.
