Hospital Costs – Who pays?
When you are overseas and need to receive medical treatment at a doctor or hospital your travel insurance doesn’t always pay upfront. Quite often you’ll need lodge a claim when you get home. Before seeing a doctor, or as soon as you can if it’s an emergency, call the insurance company and tell them what is happening. They’ll be able to tell you if they have preferred medical providers and what you need to do to claim the costs back.
Travel Insurance
Ideally the insurance company will pay for your hospital or doctors costs upfront as this saves you from putting the costs on your credit card or trying to organise more money from home, especially if it’s an expensive accident.
