Do you really need travel insurance?
Do you have a pre-existing health condition?
Does thinking about travel insurance and travel medical insurance make your head spin?
Then you need to tune into this information packed episode.
Join me as I talk to Jason Robinson of The Nomad Experiment about travel medical insurance when you have a pre-existing health issue.
He will go over all the in's and out's go getting the insurance you need for your trip — whether you will be out of the country for a week or 2 or a few months.
Then stick around as I'll give an overview of travel insurance — what it can cover and what it might not cover.
