travel insurance for students
I am a student and want to get travel insurance for myself. Is it possible for me to get it done?
Yes, there are various types of travel insurance packages which are specifically designed for students such as yourself, to cover the risks and ensure smooth stay. These plans are modified as per the convenience of the students and also to match their requirement during the stay. Travel insurance plans are very cost-effective and available at nearly 1/3 cost, if you buy it from the country of your visit. It is mandatory in most of the universities abroad to have insurance cover for all their students, hence, it is advised to get yourself covered before going to other countries. Generally, the travel insurance is valid for the duration of your stay but you can get an extension in a digital signature format.
The biggest and most important feature/advantage of travel insurance is that they do not require any medical check-up and cover your health with 24-hour cashless emergency services. Insurance companies have global tie ups with international health groups for covering all medical emergencies. Basically it covers the medical and accidental expenses, loss of personal possessions, third party liability, study interruption and bail bond, parents’ visit when under medical supervision. Apart from these few coverage, there is a special coverage for women students which cover expenses against pregnancy, medical care expenses, childcare expenses, and hospitalisation of child.
