Often, the primary medical insurance in your home country does not cover you while traveling abroad. Additionally, it will not provide essential services in the event of an illness or injury. Atlas Insurance offers valuable services, including translation assistance during treatment, doctor and hospital referrals, and help with replacing lost prescriptions.
WorldTrips, the plan administrator, provides 24/7 customer service for Atlas Travel Medical insurance members. They also offer many other services you’ll need if you encounter difficulties while abroad, from simple matters such as lost luggage to more serious crises, like a terrorist attack. In the event of medical emergencies, political evacuations, and natural disasters, WorldTrips will provide you with assistance in making emergency travel arrangements.
Atlas Travel Insurance offers some of the most customizable travel insurance plans available. Whether you purchase Atlas International (for people outside of the US) or Atlas America Insurance (for people whose travel includes the USA), you will have the ability to customize your deductible, your coverage length, and your coverage maximum.

Yes, both Atlas International Insurance and Atlas America Insurance provide limited home country coverage. This benefit will provide for a set number of days of coverage for travelers if they return home for a period of time during their trip abroad. Policies with Home Country Coverage typically cover medical benefits related to a new illness or injury incurred during an incidental trip back to a traveler’s home country.
You must have purchased three months of coverage for the Incidental Home Country Coverage to be in effect.
U.S. home country:
Should you change your home country’s location during the certificate period, you must notify us of such change within fifteen (15) days. Your new home country will govern the terms of any home country or incidental home country coverage. Any benefit accrued under a single three-month period does not accumulate to another period. Failure to continue your international trip or your return to your home country to obtain treatment for an illness or injury that began while traveling shall void any incidental home country coverage.
After your initial purchase, you may extend your coverage up to a maximum of 364 days. So long as your coverage is continuous, your deductible, coinsurance and benefit limits will not reset. After your initial term, you can purchase a new policy if you decide to continue to travel abroad.
Extensions must be made online in WorldTrips’ Client Zone. Payment must be made by credit card.
