The travel health insurance that millions of Canadians buy may offer no protection at all if they answer a single question incorrectly — no matter how innocent the error — on a medical questionnaire full of convoluted language, confusing clauses and tricky definitions, the CBC's Marketplace has learned.

For some people, the result can be financial ruin when their claims are denied.

Wow, this is no fun !
I've got to be very careful when buying travel insurance in the future. But this is scary as we'ren't sure if we are covered or not !

It is very scary. I know a person this happened to also, only in Las Vegas, 250,000.00 for five days in hospital. I love Az. and Ca. but hubby has heart issues, so looks like we're confined to Canada for awhile. We cannot afford the down side!

Until an admin gets here, there is no way for a moderator to move posts to an already existing topic, so I am closing this one since the very same topic is discussed in an earlier thread.
