Travel Insurance Israel, is proud to offer Taglit-Birthright Israel participants, Travel Insurance. Our insurance policies meet the Taglit-Birthright Israel Health Insurance Requirments.

During your 10-day Taglit-Birthright Israel trip, you are required to come to Isarel with your own health insurance policy that is valid in Israel. The rule comes directly from Taglit-Birthright Israel, and it is strictly enforced.

Our policies provide automatic documents which include: provider information and a policy number which can be used to show proof of insurance.

In addition to medical insurance, our policies automatically provide a number of side benefits including:

• Travel delay
• Baggage delay/loss
• Emergency Evacuation
• Optional Trip cancellation/cancel for any reason insurance to cover your additional costs.

1. You will find two policy options. They are "Travel Select" or "Cruise, Tour & Travel (Platinum)". What's the difference? The "Platinum" policy provides additional coverage and costs a little more as well. Either one will do.


2. Once you select a policy type, you will be asked to enter the cost of the trip. Since the trip is free, you can enter exactly $0. However, if you are flying to the departure airport in North America, and you want to insure the cost of your domestic flight, you should enter that cost here. Similarly, if you are extending your stay in Israel or beyond, you must enter the exact dates of travel (from the time you leave home until you return) you will be covered throughout your trip and the cost of these plans are the same for a trip up to 30 days in length.


3. The price of the insurance will utimately depend on your age, state of residency, the type of coverage you choose, and whether you want to insure any extra travel costs. Typically, insurance prices are $30-$50 for your 10-day group trip.


4. The entire process takes no more than ten minutes. It is fast, cheap and easy.

What is Travel Insurance?

Travel insurance, also know as trip insurance, trip cancellation insurance and trip interruption insurance protects a traveler's vacation cost against cancellation, interruption and delay while also providing medical, lost or damaged property coverage. Researching travel insurance products can be confusing. That is why we built our Policy Picker to help you easily compare prices and benefits of several travel insurance plans.

Travel Protection vs Travel Medical

Travel Insurance Protection plans typically reimburse your non-reimbursed travel expenses if an emergency occurs causing your trip to be canceled, interrupted or delayed. Travel Medical insurance is medical insurance designed to reimburse you for medical expenses incurred while traveling.

Why do I need travel insurance?

You can begin your trip without any travel insurance and be self insured. But did you know that if you become ill abroad the costs to treat you could be very high. How would you find a doctor? Where would you find appropriate healthcare facility? Where would you seek advice? Did you know that HMO's, PPO's and Medicare typically do not cover you abroad?
