India has seen a remarkable growth of International tourists to around 25 million in 2018 and growing at around 10% YOY. But while the numbers of travellers have been increasing, unfortunately the % of travellers option for medical insurance for travelling abroad has stayed around 20% for many years now and this penetration is a result of Schengen visas mandatorily requiring an insurance cover.

Best medical insurance for traveling abroad

Eventhough there are many good insurance providers who offer the best medical insurance for travelling abroad, many India travellers believe that for short trips nothing would really happen and hence prefer not to avail of overseas medical insurance. This presents a major financial risk to the travellers should something unforeseen come up due to a medical or non medical emergency, since without an insurance cover, they will need to pay these expenses out of their pockets (read hard earned savingsā€¦).

India also has around 200,000 students travel abroad every year and most Indian insurance providers also offer competitive medical insurance for students traveling abroad. But even in this case despite comprehensive coverages at compelling premiums, only 10% of Indian students avail their Medical insurance from India. The rest of them purchase the same from their respective Universities. One should review the student insurance plans online at www.eindiainsurance.com prior to making a decision regarding their insurance coverage. While the Universities offer a comprehensive medical coverage (equivalent to what the Indian insurers are offering), there are many non medical covers like Sponsor Protection, Study Interruption, Laptop Cover, Compassionate Visit etc which are offered only by the Indian insurance companies.

Similarly there are also competitive medical insurance plans for seniors traveling abroad, one can compare and make the best choice at www.eindiainsurance.com
