Medical insurance segment accounts for the largest market share by Coverage Type
Based on the Coverage Type, Travel insurance falls under Coverage Type and is very important, particularly within the European market, and the real sense of it has always catered to the needs of covering travelers against medical expenses that are deemed uncontrolled and unexpected. The rationale behind such insurance is to ensure that on medical cover, which includes treatments, hospitalization, evacuations in case of emergencies, and repatriation of the remains if the need is, all expenses about travel insurance will be covered. This is very important, especially for tourists who have health problems or accident cases abroad, because healthcare costs are very unaffordable. Some travel insurance policies include pre-existing medical coverages, but these greatly differ from one another. Insurers can consider covering up these conditions if declared and assessed while purchasing the policy. The NIH states that medical coverage accounts for 50% to 60% of all travel insurance sold in Europe, thus highlighting how essential it is to travelers as well.
Furthermore, Medical cover prevents many out-of-pocket expenses incurred relating to the health care provision at destination countries. If there is no cover, then the emergency medical services would unleash several financial levies on the travelers. Insurance will ensure that travelers gain access to medical facilities and services based on set standards. This is important in countries where healthcare systems may differ a lot from those in the traveler's home country. According to ABI, it can cost any amount between €2,000 to €5,000 minimum just to settle a medical claim in Europe, with the case itself and the severity of the situation at its core. The more complicated the case is, the more will be charged, such as for elaborate operations and longer than usual hospital stays.
