Ease some of the worries of traveling.

Lost/stolen item recovery and medical assistance

Lost/stolen items

We all hope it won’t happen to us, but it could. Lost items are a travel reality. And sometimes, you simply forget to pack the essentials. AXA can help you recover or replace lost, stolen, or forgotten items so you don’t miss a beat, including:

Getting sick or hurt while traveling is no picnic. When you need it most, AXA is there to assist with finding medical and dental care, like:

• Medical pre-certification and referrals to physicians, specialists, clinics, and hospitals
• Dental referrals for emergencies
• Hospital admissions, medical monitoring, and discharge planning

• Emergency medical transportation to a different facility if medically necessary
