What are the best travel medical insurance options while pregnant?

What are the best travel medical insurance options while pregnant?

  • Are you planning international travels during your pregnancy? It is important to make sure that you have international insurance benefits that include coverage for complications.
  • It is also extremely important that you are not traveling against medical advice. Always check with your doctor to make sure you are medically able to travel.
  • Also check the Travel Warnings for your destination country. Certain disease outbreaks (Zika, for example) carry a higher risk for pregnant women.
  • For those coming to the U.S., at this time, Good Neighbor Insurance does not carry a plan for maternity coverage to cover the birth for a person who is already pregnant.
  • All of our long-term insurance plans have a minimum of 10-12 months waiting period for maternity coverage. We cannot recommend a plan for those wanting to have coverage for a U.S. birth.

What is covered? What is considered a “complication” of pregnancy?

  • On international travel medical plans that include coverage for complications of pregnancy, a complication will be a condition that puts the life of the mother and/or baby in jeopardy.
  • Examples of conditions that are NOT covered would be occasional spotting, false labor, or morning sickness.

If I give birth during my trip, will my delivery and baby be covered?

  • Delivery of the baby is only covered if it’s due to an eligible complication (pre-eclampsia for example).
  • If the pre-term labor puts the mother or child in danger, then it would be covered.
  • Babies born during international travel will not be covered on the mother’s policy.
