Advantages of Renewal of Policy, offered by IMG.
When Outreach Travel Medical Insurance is
purchased for a minimum of 3 months initially, clients may choose to
renew coverage for as little as 5 days at a time.
This will allow clients to only pay for coverage they need.
Renewals can be performed
Online.
For paper based application, minimum period of renewal is 1 month.
Total period of coverage
for Outreach Travel Medical Insurance cannot exceed 2 years.
Please note that this is a renewal of policy and NOT a new policy. That means that if something occured in the previous months, it would not
be considered a pre-existing condition. While if you take a new policy,
it will be considered as a pre-existing condition. Thus renewability is a big advantage.
Every time you renew the policy, insurance company charges $5 renewal fee for renewals less than 1 month, in addition to the premium.
Therefore, it is a good idea to not pay in too many installments if you already
know that you are going to stay for a few months.
Whether you buy in small durations or for many months at a time, total premium
rate remains same, deductible is also only once per year. Only difference is $5 fee per
renewal.
