Travel Insurance – Reading Between the Lines

Travel insurance is an essential item. However, exclusions and limitations can affect access to medical care abroad and leave travellers stranded unexpectedly without coverage or out-of-pocket. This Masterclass features a panel discussion with clinicians who will address some of the pitfalls of travel insurance and what your patients should know when choosing a travel insurance plan. The discussion will include cases on travel and pregnancy, mental health, pre-existing conditions, and adventure travel.

In this Masterclass, you’ll get the latest information in vaccinology and infectious diseases to enhance your knowledge and practice in travel medicine.
