FOREIGN TRAVEL INSURANCE AND ASSISTANCE SERVICES

FOREIGN TRAVEL INSURANCE

For Employees:

Through The University of Toledo's participation in the Inter-University Council Insurance Consortium (IUC-IC), UT faculty, staff, student interns and trustees (referred to as “Covered Persons”) are provided foreign travel insurance from Chartis. The insurance provides coverage for general liability, excess auto liability, repatriation of remains and accident/sickness when traveling outside the U.S. and Canada for the purpose of conducting University business or fulfilling internship requirements.  Click here for information.

For Students:

Students are not covered by Chartis foreign travel insurance program. Student health insurance provides minimal overseas coverage, therefore, it is required that specific foreign accident/sickness coverage be purchased if the student is not in an affiliated program that provides insurance coverage. There are several insurance companies that sell various types of coverage. Most applications are on-line and subscribing to insurance is quick, easy and inexpensive. The following companies are a representative list of insurance products for short term insurance coverage for students traveling abroad.
