Angelis Medical Tourism Insurance
Thinking of Treatment Abroad?
Angelis Insurance is the first travel policy to provide cover for people going for medical, cosmetic and dental treatment abroad.
More and more people are choosing to travel abroad to have surgery to avoid high cost private surgery and NHS waiting lists at home. Proposed changes in European Law will soon make 'Medical Tourism' even more commonplace, but what are the implications of this should complications arise?
People travelling abroad for surgery wrongly assume that their travel insurance will cover their medical treatment. However, standard travel insurance policies EXCLUDE any claims that may arise as a direct result of medical treatment. Patients usually only discover they are travelling without insurance cover when it's too late.
Angelis is the first company in the world to provide a travel policy designed specifically to cover treatment abroad alongside the benefits of standard travel insurance. The Angelis travel policy not only removes medical travel exclusions, but also covers eventualities unique to medical travel, such as extra medication, prolonged stay or return trips abroad.
