When you are shopping for medical travel insurance, find out who is expected to pay the hospital upfront in case of a medical emergency during your vacation. Some medical travel insurance companies require you to pay the hospital and then apply for reimbursement afterwards. Other international travel insurance policies pay the hospital right from the start. This can save you a lot of headache during an emergency if you don't have a lot of money available.
