问题     Bombay wasn’t the ideal place to get sick -- not when my doctor, family’ and friends were half a world away. I was alone, quite ill and had to delay my flight home. Luckily, when booking my ticket months before, l had shelled out (支付) for travel insurance. So my illness didn’t cost me a cent.
    It’s actually pretty simple. A lot of unforeseen things can happen to you when you’re traveling.  Make sure you’re prepared for all of them.
    A good health insurance policy will get you proper medical attention anywhere in the world outside your home province -- at the insurance company’s expense. The company will send you home if it is considered medically necessary and, if you’re sick enough, it will send a nurse to accompany you. If you end up in a hospital and a doctor recommends that a family member come to your bedside, the insurance company will pay for k. You may even get pocket money to make your hospital stay more comfortable.
    When I was sick in Bombay, I called the insurance company collect. It paid for a doctor (who came to my hotel room), all my medication, an extra night in the hotel and all my meals.
    Picture it: the day before your big trip to Vancouver, you wake up with appendicitis (阑尾炎). You have no choice -- you have to cancel your trip. Your ticket, like most, is non-refundable and you can’t make any changes. You’re about to lose all the money you put out for the ticket -- unless you bought cancellation insurance beforehand.
    Most travel plans include some form of non-refundable element: your deposit, your flights, your cruise, your stay at the all-inclusive resort, That non-refundable portion is what you’ll lose if you have to cancel your trip in the event that you get sick and you don’t have cancellation insurance.
