Uninsured travelers who require medical care overseas often face extreme difficulties.

It's easy to take advantage of this benefit--simply activate your Medical Evacuation Insurance Plan with VA Travel to get $50,000 of policy coverage. This insurance is a part of your VA Travel Card membership--a value worth hundreds of dollars if purchased separately.

Our VA Travel Card Medical Evacuation plan covers emergency medical evacuation when traveling domestically or abroad back to a licensed medical facility in your home country, and one-way airfare to the place of residence for dependent children left behind. It also covers a round-trip flight for someone of your choosing to the place of hospitalization if you are hospitalized for more than seven days.
