Before you head off on summer adventures, take a moment to make sure you understand your travel insurance.

Our carrier Beneva has a checklist you can use to make sure you've got everything you need before you travel. 

  1. Review your travel insurance coverage
    Make sure you know exactly what is and isn't included.
  2. Check how long you're covered
    Is it a weekend away, or a months-long leave? Check to see if all of your days away are covered.
  3. Confirm your health is stable before you travel
    Travel insurance is for the unexpected. Costs related to a known condition may not be covered—call your travel assistance at 1-800-465-2928 to find out if this applies to you.
  4. Check travel advisories before you go
