March 13, 2004 -- Insurance, though necessary, is not always the most favourite of necessities, especially insurance that is required when engaging in International travel.

What is perhaps not widely known, though, is that it is extremely important to ensure that the correct travel medical insurance is taken out depending on the destination, as each destination has a very different set of circumstances.

There is a vast difference between traveling to Europe and Africa and it stands to reason that an insurance providing medical emergencies in Europe would need to be quite different from that for travel to Africa.

Consequently, a unique travel medical insurance was designed for travel to Southern Africa.

Tourmed Medical Travel Insurance, launched in January 2003, is that insurance. It has sufficient cover of R1 million for the region and boasts competitive premiums, while being in the position to deliver top notch services.

It is underwritten by AIG and the emergency services are provided by International SOS. The key to this very relevant product is that in the event of any medical emergency that requires hospitalisation, there are no cash deposits or upfront payments required.

This feature makes all the difference when one requires immediate hospitalisation, especially when is in unfamiliar surroundings.

Tourmed is website based for ease of use and access to the international traveller. One is able to purchase a policy instantly, live online in a secure enviroment prior to embarking on that dreamed about adventure, whether it be a Self Drive around Cape Town or a Safari through Kenya.

Tourmed's website is available at
