About the Policy

What Pulse Globetrotter covers

Pulse Globetrotter travel insurance covers elective surgery, procedures and treatments abroad — providing financial protection for unforeseen circumstances such as a medical emergency during the planned procedure, or an extended stay required for recovery.

Elective surgery cover

Financial protection specifically for planned medical procedures and treatments abroad — not just emergencies.

Medical emergency during procedure

If an unforeseen medical emergency occurs during your planned treatment, you're covered for the costs.

Extended stay abroad

If your recovery requires a longer stay than planned, Pulse Globetrotter covers the additional period.

Hospital benefit

£50 per 24-hour period as a hospital in-patient outside the UK (beyond the night of admission), up to a maximum of £1,500.

Hospital Benefit — £50 per night, up to £1,500

If you spend a night as an in-patient in a hospital outside the UK, Pulse Globetrotter pays £50 for each further complete 24-hour period in that hospital — up to a maximum of £1,500. This benefit excludes nights directly related to the planned treatment, but covers unexpected extensions to your hospital stay.
