72-year old Te Ao Maaka was on her way to Bali International Airport for a flight home to New Zealand when she suffered a heart attack. She was taken to hospital but refused treatment by doctors until demands for payment by hospital staff were met. Thankfully, Te Ao Maaka had a seniors travel insurance policy with 1Cover.
1Cover alleviated the stress of the situation right away by handling payments for medical assistance and making sure family was with her. Te Ao Maaka was in hospital with family by her side for 13 days before being repatriated to New Zealand on a comfortable flight. Back home, she made a complete recovery from her heart attack.

When model Emily Gurr was 21, she was enjoying a holiday in Vietnam with a friend. It was a typical holiday: food, culture, and good times. From Vietnam, Emily flew to Bali to meet other friends and it's here that she woke up one day, debilitated from a dengue fever virus that she had picked up from a mosquito in Vietnam. From here began a holiday nightmare...but with 1Cover's help, Emily was evacuated form Bali to Darwin for treatment.
Watch the full $52,000 ordeal above.
A few years later, Emily found herself back in Bali, a place she holds dear, despite what had happened to her when she got dengue fever. This time she was out walking to dinner, when a motorbike rider lost control fo his vehicle and fell on her ankle. She originally thought it was just a minor sprain, but the pain became excruciating. She wasn't sure what to do and got in touch with 1Cover, and was flown home soon after on a business class Qantas flight. It turned out her ankle was broken in four places and she needed seven screws and a plate in her ankle.
