Medipac Travel Insurance
Hi All:
Just a note especially to our Canadian Snowbirds, of which we are.
We have Medipac Travel Emergency Medical Insurance endorsed by CSA.
What a life saver ! On Dec 19 after 4 days in hospital in Mesa AZ my wife and I
were medevacted to a hospital in our home town of Edmonton, Alberta. Cost of flight about $ 40,000 US. Stay in hospital $ 30,000 US, ambulance ride $ 1300 US. The flight took under 3 hours on a private Lear Jet with 2 pilots and 2 nurses to attend to my wife. I was stowed in the back seat. The nurses did not leave us until my wife was admitted to the hospital.
We left our rig, Montana 3800RE and Ford F350 in Mesa. Medipac will pay for returning the rig to Edmonton from Mesa.
Bottom Line. You may think it is expensive paying $2,000 for this type of insurance, but when it happens to you, be very grateful the insurance exists.
Your full time RVing friend.
