Growing up Sean was on a soccer team that used to travel outside of Ireland. Most of the games they played were in Ireland but every once in a while they’d play over in England. Now doing this was a bit risky only because if he got hurt playing soccer outside of his country, their insurance would not cover it. Now this was a long time ago, but it’s the same today. Say, for some reason, Tristan’s team made the states and then the nationals and then for some reason had to go and play outside of the United States - he would not be covered by our insurance if he got hurt. There is a travel medical insurance you can get from MultiNational Underwriters that helps you out just for this type of thing. I was told by Tristan’s coach to Check it out for the team “just in case”. (And that’s a BIG ‘just in case’). I did find out that they offer a “Sports Rider” that you can add to your insurance. From what I found it it’s very affordable and covers the player if they get injured. Personally, I think this is an awesome idea. I don’t forsee us needing it in the near future, but as the kids grow older it’s nice to know it’s out there. Who knows, maybe one of our kids will want to study abroad over in their daddy’s homeland of Ireland and if they’re still into soccer then like they are now, this insurance could come in handy! I can see my little guy going to college in Galway and playing on their Rugby team. We’d definitely need it then!

While I was traveling during the Christmas break I was offered traveler’s insurance by my airline. I declined since I had insurance in Canada and the US (I’m lucky in that regard) but it made me think a little bit. Having traveled to China, Europe and other far off places, I know that the need for insurance is great, but how many people really pick up the option to get traveler’s insurance when they buy their tickets?

As an adult male in his mid-fifties I have traveled internationally since early childhood. Beginning in the 1950’s I spent summers in French speaking Canada and I recall how exotic it was to hear people speaking in a language other than English. I am reminded of these first memories each spring when I open the very same summer cottage that I roamed as a child. How precious those first experiences continued to be as a young father as I watched with wonder as my children learned French in school and were able to converse in the local language on their summer vacations.
In the language of healthcare our two countries could not be more different. The U.S. and Canada took different forks in the road back then. Healthcare became a government service in Canada and in the U.S. it became a right bestowed by your employer. Now, because of escalating costs, U.S. healthcare has become unaffordable to many millions of people and employers are curtailing or limiting coverage for their employees. For all of its short falls, the Canadian system works for the majority of Canadians. The U.S. system is failing many more individuals then Canada.
Today it is more important to buy insurance if you are a Canadian coming to the U.S. or if you are a U.S. citizen traveling to Canada. Whether you are an international student, traveling on business or just on vacation you need travel medical insurance; MultiNational Underwriters of Indianapolis, Indiana is a leader in the travel medical insurance industry. Atlas Travel Medical Insurance has been the brand of choice since 1998. Go to www.mnui.com to learn more about the company and its products.

Fascination to study abroad among Indian students has always been there. Over the years the fascination has grow exponentially. Bringing home a foreign degree is a matter of pride and prestige and a job becomes guaranteed. The other advantage of a foreign degree is the ample number of jobs available in the marketplace for foreign return students.
Apart from guaranteed jobs, things one learns abroad are always filled with new experiences. The focus of foreign universities is very clear: they would emphasize more on practical training and less on class-room lectures.
The cost of study in foreign universities varies widely among institutions and the cost of living varies from place to place. Apart from published costs students must prepared to cover hidden costs – which include:
• Personal expenses
• Costs when residence halls are closed,
• Health insurance
• Change in the value of currency, etc.
The students in abroad are seeking medical care during their study. Sometimes the expenses are too high, that a student may not able to continue his/her study further. So, it is wise to make International students insurance policy. The policy helps to pay the medical bills and to take the help of expert doctors during the need. When you purchase health insurance, the premium (the money you pay) is used to pay the medical bills during any health care. Your coverage remains valid only as long as you continue to pay your premiums. Once you purchase insurance, the insurance company will give you an insurance identification card for you to use when you seek care from a hospital or doctor. The insurance company will also provide written instruction for reporting and documenting medical expenses (filing a claim). The insurance company will evaluate any claim you file and make the appropriate payment under you policy. In some cases the insurance company pays the hospital or doctors directly; in other the company will reimburse you after you have paid the bills.

IF you are travelling, play it safe. Have a good travel insurance. Most insurance, including medical ones, may not cover travel related medical emergencies. If you are one of those who are not sure, before even booking your travel plans, you should first consider making inquiries about travel insurance.Do not find out too late that your current medical insurance provider do NOT cover travel medical expenses when outside of your home country or that your current insurance covers only up to 50 per cent of the claim.
Often travel insurance are very competitively priced, some even as low as $1 per day and this meagre sum does go a long way towards a stress-free holiday.
Of course, no one wants to fall ill during a tour but for a nominal fee, let travel insurance give you that peace of mind.
I had been browsing several travel insurance sites and this one offers pretty reasonable rates. Check it out. They also offer free quotes, no obligations.

We all love to travel and recently I even made a trip myself which I shall be covering at a later post. But what I had wanted to share with all of you out there, who think that they have all the medical coverage that they may need as they travel overseas, it is time to seriously think about how far that coverage will go?
Why do we need Insurance as we travel overseas? Well, for one the food is often the most common cause of most hospitalisations overseas, lets face it, we as westerners just cannot stomach even a bit of spicy food. The minute we take it into our mouths, our tummies start rebelling right away. If we are fortunate, this distress may last only for a day or two at the most and can be handled with the most common over the counter medicines. But more often than not, our bodies just cannot handle all that hot and spicy food and as a result we often get dehydrated and need to be hospitalised. And naturally our medical expenses will just shoot up through the ceiling, and we may think that our insurance will cover all that. But here is the catch, whenever it comes to insurance, there always is a catch and the bottom line is that most of the insurance companies will not cover your medical expenses that you may incur overseas and what is more, even the few that agree to do so, will only agree to cover half of our medical expenses.
How do I know this? Well, in my last trip to Egypt, I ended up being hospitalised with both a broken leg as well as acute dehydration. What I had stated above had all happened to me . And just when I thought that there seems to be no proper travel Insurance coverage that seems to exist, I came across this company that makes sure that you get all the right coverage as you travel overseas and the best part is that they can give you the coverage for as little as 1$.
