Who Needs Coverage in Quito
Business Traveler
Employer health plans rarely cover international emergencies in Ecuador. One hospitalization wipes out the entire trip ROI.
Tourist & Leisure Traveler
Adventure activities, unfamiliar food, and new environments elevate risk in Quito. Coverage starts from $1/day.
Expat & Long-Stay Visitor
Extended stays in Ecuador require coverage that lasts — most domestic plans cap at 30 days abroad.
Senior Traveler
Medicare provides zero international coverage. Seniors face the highest medical risk abroad and need the highest limits.
