Non-profit organization offering student travel scholarships
If you live outside the United States or in a U.S. territory, we can recommend a policy offered through UnitedHealthcare Global, or you can research trip cancellation coverage independently. We urge you to do so before paying your invoice, as many companies have restrictive timing considerations for purchase as it relates to payment.
UnitedHealthcare Global Insurance Benefits
For residents outside of the United States, TravMark is offering United Healthcare Global SafeTrip travel protection plans for your upcoming trip. Unlike many plans for international participants that typically provide emergency medical expense and medical evacuation coverage only, SafeTrip plans can offer additional benefits such as those listed below.
Key benefits provided by UnitedHealthcare Global SafeTrip:
– Trip cancellation, interruption or delay
– Emergency medical expenses
– Emergency evacuation
– Lost, damaged or stolen luggage
– Please note that this plan has a pre-existing condition exclusion which can not be waived.
