What does it cost?
$450/yr includes all members of the household.
I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!

Which credit cards offer free medical travel insurance?

I know that Chase does for my Sapphire Reserve, but I didn’t charge any of my trip expenses to that card. Any other cards?

TIA

If I'm not mistaken Chase does not offer health insurance

travel medical insurance is what I'm talking about - where you get reimbursed if you incurred medical expenses

They sent me a 60-page PDF via email a few days ago. PDF too large to attach here, but here is a bit of text:

Emergency Medical and Dental Benefit:
• The Emergency Medical and Dental Benefit provides reimbursement for certain medical expenses incurred when Emergency Treatment for sickness or accidental injury is required during the course of a Common Carrier covered Trip. It covers only the medical expenses that are not covered by Your medical insurance and is supplemental to and in excess of any valid and  collectible insurance or reimbursement.
• You must receive the treatment during the course of the Trip and upon the recommendation of the attending physician.
