While you are probably concentrating more on having fun on your vacation, making sure you will be well taken care of should an accident or unforeseen event occur is a very important consideration. That is why it is good to purchase travel insurance just for the occasion. When choosing good coverage there are several factors to consider. You want to be sure you are covered in just about any aspect as your normal coverage would provide you at home. Important features are emergency room coverage, accident coverage, and hospital stays. This becomes especially important if you will be traveling outside Canada. In order to make your policy work, you need to make sure there is a co-operative relationship between the policy holder and the company providing the insurance. Because the medical treatment around the world is so broad and varied, the home-based insurance companies will often provide you with booklets that outline what they will and won't cover. That is why it is very important for you the purchaser to become to become as familiar as you possibly can with the basic guidelines of the policy before an emergency ever occurs. Decision so any reimbursement of expenses are not likely to be the first thing when you are in an urgent situation. Below are a few guidelines for insurance financial coverage should an emergency occur. BE sure to obtain authorization. As soon as possible, be sure to call the number for the emergency service center provided policy. The role of the service center is to manage your medical care and make the overall claim process faster and more efficient. The center should provide claim administrators, on site doctors, nurses, and other medical officials to arrange to help manage your care and monitor any treatment that may become necessary in an emergency situation. If possible, do not proceed with any treatment before receiving the proper authorization. I N order to assist in the claims process more efficiently, you should supply all information and facts you can as accurately as possible. Keep a log of the contacts at both service center and your insurance company. This includes the names of people assisting you, the date of contact, what was discussed during any conversations that took place. You should also keep a detailed record of all medical transactions and get receipts for all medical care including: tests, treatments, and proscriptions. Receipts are an absolute must when making a claim, and you never know when you may need them. You should also observe the time limits of your policy. Complete the supplied forms and enclose all bills signed by the attending physician, along with receipts and any supporting claim documentation that will prove necessary when filing your claim. Also include all numbers such as those pertaining to your policy, along with your date of birth and any other requested information that will make the process faster and more efficient.
