Hi Vickimarie - yes, it's a pain, isn't it. I've just posted a blog somewhere about this. I spent hours today checking out travel insurance for the USA. 2 weeks, and it's costing me about $350. Ouch. I've insured with Insure and Go, and am covered for BC plus some back issues. I'm not concerned about something happening with BC over there, but more about the unlikely event of the cancer coming back and having to cancel. I've checked out a lot of other companies, including Medibank Private, but they either have dreadful reviews for mishandling claims, or they won't insure me for both health issues. Some of the other companies I discarded included AAMI, Southern Cross, Worldcare and others I can't remember. Hope this helps. Pam.
