Health Coverage That Follows You Abroad.
Travel Medicine Insurance
Your trip may be planned—but your health coverage might not be. Whether you're heading overseas for a vacation, business, volunteer work, or extended stay, travel medicine insurance helps ensure you’re protected from costly medical surprises while away. At Flaxbeard Insurance Advisors, we help Nebraska travelers find dependable coverage for wherever life takes them.
Regular Health Insurance May Not Travel With You
Why Travel Medicine Insurance Matters
Many U.S. health plans—including Medicare—don’t fully cover international care. Without travel medicine insurance, you could be left paying out-of-pocket for:
- ER visits or hospitalizations abroad
- Emergency evacuations or airlifts
- Prescription medications
- Unexpected follow-up care
We help you avoid gaps in coverage—and make sure you’re prepared for more than just your itinerary.

FAQ
Do I really need extra coverage if I’m healthy?
Yes—accidents, infections, and emergencies can happen to anyone, and U.S. health plans usually don’t follow you abroad.
Will Medicare cover me internationally?
Generally, no. Medicare provides extremely limited international coverage. A travel medicine plan is essential for most Medicare enrollees.
Can I use any hospital overseas?
Most plans have networks or provider support—but emergency care is typically covered. We’ll help you understand how access works in your destination.
How do I choose the right plan?
We’ll help you compare single-trip vs. multi-trip coverage, benefit levels, exclusions, and more—based on where you’re going and how long you’ll be there.
