DEDUCTIBLE REDUCTIONS

If you were insured last season under any of the Travel Insurance Specialists products and did not report a claim, your US$350 standard deductible will be reduced to US$300 when purchasing the TravelHealth Medical Plan this season. Also, if you did not report a claim in the last 2 consecutive seasons, your deductible will be reduced to US$250; if you did not report a claim in the last 3 consecutive seasons, your deductible will be reduced to US$200 or if you did not report a claim in the last 4 consecutive seasons, your deductible will be reduced to US$150.

Also, if you have a deductible of US$75 or more, you can get a US$50 reduction on that deductible if you visit a stand alone clinic or doctor's office instead of a hospital or any emergency room.

Deductible Choices (Optional)

The policy has a US$350 deductible per claim. You have the option to change your deductible to ZERO, US$500, US$1,000, US$5,000, or US$10,000.

Buy down your pre-existing condition stability period (Optional)

The pre-existing condition stability period that you qualify for (either 3 months or 12 months) is based on the plan that you qualify for. If you qualify for a pre-existing condition stability period of 12 months prior to any departure date, you have the option to "buy-down" the stability period for pre-existing condition coverage to 3 months. If you choose this option, the policy will cover eligible expenses for a medical condition that was stable in the 3 months prior to the departure date of any trip.

Also, if you had a replacement, elimination or an increase/decrease in dosage or frequency of a medication that was prescribed more than 3 months prior to your departure date, you can reduce the stability period for the medical condition that the medication treats to 1 month prior to any departure date.
