Important before you buy
Cover designed for dental tourism trips
Standard travel insurance is not usually designed for people travelling overseas specifically to receive elective dental treatment.
Dental tourism can involve flights, accommodation, appointments, recovery time and follow-up travel arrangements. If something goes wrong before or during the trip, travellers may face additional costs or disruption.
Go Insurance’s Dental Tourism optional cover is designed to provide selected benefits for eligible travellers who are travelling overseas for planned dental treatment.
Who it may suit
What Dental Tourism cover may include
Depending on the policy, selected cover may be available for certain dental tourism related events.
What it is not
Dental Tourism optional cover is not a replacement for medical or dental advice, and it does not mean the planned dental treatment itself is covered as a normal medical expense.
It also does not remove the need to research your dental provider, understand the clinical risks, obtain appropriate advice and make sure you are fit to travel.
You should read the PDS and the applicable Optional Cover SPDS carefully before deciding whether this cover is right for you.
Why standard travel insurance may not be enough
Travel insurance generally covers unforeseen or unexpected events. Elective treatment is different.
If you are travelling overseas for planned dental work, standard travel insurance may exclude claims connected with elective, cosmetic, routine or planned treatment.
That is why Dental Tourism optional cover needs to be selected if you want cover for eligible dental tourism related events.
Before arranging treatment overseas
Adding Dental Tourism cover
Dental Tourism cover can be added to any Go Insurance Leisure cover level.
When applying, choose your preferred Leisure cover level, then select Dental Tourism optional cover where available. You should check that the optional cover is shown on your Certificate of Insurance.
If it is not shown on your Certificate of Insurance, Dental Tourism optional cover has not been added to your policy.
