Should I buy travel health insurance without a deductible for Hurghada, Egypt?

From messages by 3 participants in 2 sources · Last activity: 21 days ago

TL;DR

For Hurghada, travelers recommend medical insurance with no deductible: with a roughly US$30 deductible, you may have to pay that amount for each claim. It is also worth checking travel-cover offers from your bank.

What the community said

For self-paid care, Jasmine Hospital was mentioned: a routine doctor visit and medicines were estimated at about 30%. A hotel hospital charge may cover only the consultation, while deductible-policy treatment may require going elsewhere.

When treatment is arranged through the insurer, medication may be provided at no extra cost if your policy has no deductible.

A policy with an approximately US$30 deductible is cheaper, but you pay the first US$30 of a covered claim yourself; eligible costs above that are handled by the insurer.
