Q: I am looking for a short term
life insurance that covers international travel.
A: The "Liaison Traveler" policy
on the international medical insurance page at www.FreedomBenefits.net
provides coverage up to $500,000 of accidental death protection. The
policy can be purchased for 3, 6 or 12 months at a time. It is
inexpensive; an average policy costs about $40 per month for the
maximum $500,000 coverage. The policy also includes up to $500 of trip
interruption insurance and up to $250 of lost baggage insurance. The
reason for the low cost is that travel accident insurance does not
cover death due to natural causes.
