Summer Travel? Don’t Forget Insurance

Whether you are traveling in the U.S. to see all your favorite spots, taking your first-ever cruise, or flying to an exotic destination abroad, travel insurance is easy to secure. With just a few clicks on your computer, you can save a lot of time and money.

This summer, I’m taking a cruise with my family, and the ease of securing travel insurance encouraged me to make insurance an essential part of my vacation. Within 10 minutes, I secured coverage for my trip, logged in to my portal, and reviewed the latest security and health advisories for the countries I would be traveling to.

In the past, you may have purchased travel insurance through Geo Blue. They have rebranded as Blue Cross Blue Shield Global Solutions. The updated name and member portal look great, and the site is easy to navigate, helping you manage your health with confidence while traveling.

Features like translation tools will help you communicate health needs when a language barrier is present, and cool graphics help you navigate the website easily. Instead of an in-person doctor visit, you can do a free virtual visit for non-emergency care. Your personalized portal will include a link to providers and facilities at your destination. Easy access to direct pay means little to no out-of-pocket costs, and you can send a message from your portal and expect a response within 24 hours.

This process couldn’t be easier, and the peace of mind that comes with protecting yourself and your family is priceless.

Rates are affordable. Choose your coverage amount and deductible to see prices and quotes. Client reviews are excellent. If you travel this summer, add insurance to your packing list.

Either of the following links will take you to Global Solutions. Health Advisors with Insurance Group of the Ozarks are available to answer any questions.
