A note From Rosey, the BHUZ administrator -- I use this travel insurance for my family, and when one of my daughters got sick while traveling in India (dysentary!), her claim was handled promptly and efficiently. For general travel protection, the Patriot Travel Medical Insurance^® or the Patriot T.R.I.P. Elite^SM plan is the one most Bhuzzers will find useful.
