Frequently Asked Questions:

In case of an emergency, do I have to pay upfront and be reimbursed later?
With Global Guard Protection, you don’t have to pay out of pocket for any covered medical expenses. We will coordinate directly with hospitals, physicians, and pharmacies to handle all payments. This means you can focus on getting the care you need without worrying about the financial aspect. Our goal is to ensure that you receive the necessary medical attention smoothly and efficiently, without any added stress or financial burden.

Traveling to Mexico and the Caribbean, while often enjoyable and without incident, can sometimes lead to unexpected medical emergencies. Even if your domestic health insurance provides international coverage, it’s crucial to consider purchasing a relatively inexpensive travel insurance policy for several reasons:

  • Immediate Payment Requirements: In many parts of Mexico and the Caribbean, hospitals and medical facilities require payment upfront before treatment is provided. This can be the case even for emergencies. Without proof of ability to pay, there may be delays in receiving critical care. Travel protection policies like Global Guard often include direct billing arrangements with hospitals, which means the travel protection company can settle bills directly without you having to pay upfront.
  • Coverage Gaps: While your health insurance may provide international coverage, it might not cover all types of medical care only offer reimbursement after you’ve paid out of pocket. This could involve a lot of money, especially if you need specialized or extensive medical care. Travel protection typically covers a broader range of medical services and can handle payments directly, reducing your financial burden.
  • Additional Medical Evacuation and Repatriation Coverage: Travel protection often includes benefits like medical evacuation, which can be critically important if you are in a remote area or if local facilities cannot adequately treat a severe condition. Medical evacuation can be extremely costly but is crucial in life-threatening situations. Repatriation coverage ensures you can return to your home country for necessary treatment.
  • Non-medical Benefits: Travel protection also provides benefits beyond medical coverage, such as trip cancellation, loss of luggage, and trip interruption. These coverages protect your financial investment in your trip beyond just the health aspects.
  • Peace of Mind: Having travel protection provides peace of mind, knowing that in the event of an emergency, you are not alone. Assistance services provided by travel insurers can help navigate foreign healthcare systems, including language barriers and complex administrative procedures.

In summary, while your home health insurance may provide some international coverage, the direct billing capabilities, broader coverage, and additional services offered by travel protection like Global Guard can significantly alleviate the stress and potential financial burden in case of medical emergencies during your travels. This makes it a crucial consideration for anyone traveling to Mexico and the Caribbean.
