SafetyWing offers Nomad Insurance

Cross-border travel medical and health coverage for individuals and families.
Cross-border travel medical and health coverage for individuals and families.
Nomad Insurance offers two plans for different coverage needs. Essential is described as travel medical insurance for new, unexpected issues while traveling, including hospital stays, surgeries, and medications; Complete adds ongoing renewable coverage, routine and emergency care, wellness therapies, mental-health support, and cancer treatment.
The product page says customers can sign up before departure or while already traveling or living abroad. It also advertises 24/7 human support through live chat, presenting coverage and support features for customers whose plans involve cross-border travel.
The product page states that Essential excludes pre-existing conditions, maternity care, and cancer treatment, offers limited coverage for visits to a customer's home country, and covers up to 364 days at a time. These stated limits qualify the plan's travel-medical coverage.
Complete broadens the listed health benefits but also excludes pre-existing conditions. SafetyWing describes Complete as a 12-month commitment and says some mid-contract cancellations may receive only a partial refund. These are documented product constraints, not a comparison with competing plans; the reviewed first-party pages do not establish that alternatives offer broader coverage or fewer restrictions.
A Tech.eu report published in August 2019 states that SafetyWing launched its first subscription-based medical travel insurance in 2018. The article connects that early coverage to people working and traveling across national borders.
The source does not identify the early offering by the later Nomad Insurance name. The year is therefore an attributed predecessor-product launch date, not a verified launch date for the currently named plans.
Nomad Insurance is SafetyWing's individual medical and travel coverage offering for people living or traveling across national borders. It offers one option focused on travel medical protection and another combining broader health coverage with travel protections.
Travelers can buy Nomad Insurance and begin coverage before departure or while already abroad.
