Most Common Reasons for Travel Insurance Denials

Policy Exclusions

Claims related to situations explicitly excluded in the policy, such as injuries from high-risk activities, substance abuse, or acts of war or terrorism.

Pre-existing Medical Conditions

Claims may be denied if the traveler had unstable or undisclosed pre-existing medical conditions when purchasing the insurance.

Misrepresentation

Providing inaccurate or incomplete information about medical history or travel plans on the insurance application can lead to claim denial.

Lack of Proper Documentation

Not providing the required documents, such as medical records, receipts, police reports, or proof of travel arrangements, can result in denial.

Policy Limitations

Exceeding the coverage limits or failing to meet the minimum requirements for claim approval, such as a minimum trip length or cost.

Timely Filing

Missing the deadline for filing a claim or an appeal, often stipulated within a specific timeframe in the policy terms, can lead to denial.
