If you’re hospitalised while travelling, a hospital benefit helps cover unexpected daily expenses that aren’t typically included in standard medical cover. These can include things like:
- Phone calls to loved ones
- Snacks or meals not provided by the hospital
- Magazines, books, or other comfort items
- Small personal expenses during your stay
This benefit is designed to ease some of the stress that comes with being in hospital away from home.
Please note that hospital benefits differ between insurance providers. The amount covered, the daily limit, and eligibility criteria can vary. Always check your policy wording for the full terms and conditions to understand exactly what’s included in your cover.
