They also provide a number of benefits which include terrorism coverage without geographic or political restrictions as well as waiving the policy exclusion for pre-existing conditions, lost baggage protection and protection in case of injury or emergency cancellation of the trip.<\/p>\n

Global Xpi allows users to store, access and update medical information securely once registered. Members are issued a Global Xpi card that allows sharing of information with a treating physician, pharmacist or health care provider.<\/p>\n

There is no additional cost for the Global Xpi service if you purchase a Trip Mate travel protection plan. The PHR service is available for up to 90 days after you return from your trip.<\/p>\n

Verdict<\/strong><\/p>\n

If you are looking in to travel insurance, you may want to take a look at Trip Mate. As far as PHR services go, this is probably more for those who specifically want the service only when traveling as it is only available for up to 90 days after you return from your trip. Those that need their health records updated regularly and shared with physicians and medical facilities will probably want to look into one of the other PHR services that are available for long term use.<\/p>\n
