Travel Insurance
Don’t Let a Medical Emergency Abroad Become a Nightmare
You packed your bags. You planned the dream trip. But what happens if your health doesn’t go according to plan?
Meet Cheryl
Cheryl’s husband was enjoying a cruise when he suddenly needed a ventilator. From that moment, everything changed: a boat to port, an ambulance to the airport, a private medical jet to Miami, and another ambulance to the hospital. Tragically, he passed the next day.
But their travel health insurance paid for every bit of it.
“ I would never travel again without it ,” Cheryl said. “ It saved me in the worst moment of my life. ”
The Truth Is: Most U.S. Health Plans Don’t Follow You Overseas
Medicare doesn’t cover you abroad.
Many foreign hospitals require cash upfront —no treatment without it.
Reimbursement-based plans are stressful when you're sick or scared.
GeoBlue pays first dollar, directly—so you’re not chasing receipts.

Coverage for illness, injuries, and medical emergencies
Medical evacuation—including airlift to the U.S.
Repatriation of remains
COVID coverage
Coverage for terrorism and bio-events
The ability to fly a loved one out to help you in a crisis
U.S.-based claims support and English-speaking doctors
Who Is This For?
GeoBlue has plans for:
Single trips (up to 182 days)

Kate Spilsbury, owner of Mere Benefits, keeps a year-round GeoBlue policy for her and her family.
"We travel a lot, especially out of the country and on cruises. I never want to worry about an emergency derailing our lives—or draining our savings."
It’s More Affordable Than You Think
Most people worry they’re “insurance poor”—but GeoBlue plans are often just a few dollars a day.
You’ll get peace of mind without draining your wallet.

No. This is not for missed flights or lost luggage. This is for medical emergencies, like getting sick, injured, or hospitalized while you're outside the U.S.
