Apart from CAA and Blue Cross, travel medical insurance is also available from SafetyWing (recommended by Gone with the Wynns) who specialize in insurance for nomads, i.e., perpetual travellers.
William Russel is a British company that specializes in expat medical insurance as well as life insurance. According to their website 95% of clients renew with them every year. Insurance coverage is by zones, meaning different geographical areas. From their website:
Does my policy give me full cover worldwide?
No. Where you have full cover depends on the coverage zone you select when you apply for your health insurance policy. There are six zones. Some give you full cover in more countries, others give you full cover in fewer countries. The wider your geographical cover, the more expensive your premium. Zones with limited geographical cover give you a greater saving on your premium.
Most zones have a list of countries where you have restricted cover. These are typically countries where private healthcare is expensive. Restricted cover might mean cover for accident and emergency treatment only, or cover for treatment you receive on short trips.
