Does the insurance policy offered by the organization cover expenses related to “treatment for unforeseen change in or aggravation of a condition”?
Unexpected reoccurrence of a condition is covered by any policy that does not exclude pre-existing conditions or explicitly exclude the condition for which treatment is sought (some policies may exclude mental health treatment, for example). Examples of unforeseen changes that are disability-related might include a need for counseling, or treatment of a bladder infection, blood clot, asthmatic attack, pressure sore or adverse reaction to a medication. This language distinguishes the existence of a disability from the cause of an illness or injury abroad that is related to the environment (climate, activity, food, etc.) or from difficulty accessing care abroad in exasperating (i.e. making worse) the condition.
