THAIPHUKET Posted June 27, 2017 Share Posted June 27, 2017 Just as general info. Might be of help.I was 65, not so many options already at that age. For a 3 week trip from Berlin to New York I got cover by Global Link, UK. It serves UK & EU residents. Primary address in still Berlin. Gosh, was I lucky!In NY I had a blackout in a restaurant. Ambulance. One night in Emergency under observation. Nothing found. Cost sweet $10.000!Global got my latest health report. Clean Bill.Perhaps 5 emails the most.No calls, no questions. Bills were directly paid.Just in case someone is interested.My residency is now Thailand.So I need another insurer for a trip Th -Germany.Do you know one who insures at my young age?

fvw53 Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 Travel insurance is similar to accident insurance and not related to the condition of your health Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which normally means a higher premium or they just refuse to cover that condition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
