What is the meaning of without sublimits? What does “without sublimits” mean in travel insurance?

In overseas travel medical insurance, without sublimit means the insurance company covers for your medical expenses up to the limit mentioned in the policy schedule. If you are holding a policy which is comprehensive. Then you are covered up to the limits for that eligible medical claim or non medical claim.


You can understand this how it works with an example.

Let us assume that you have travel medical insurance which covers $100,000 for your medical expenses without any medical sublimits. There is a admissible claim with this policy of $25,000. The break up of medical expenses is listed below.

  • Xray and lab tests = $2,500
  • Surgery = $12,000
  • Room rent = $1,500 for 3 days
Total claim amount is $19,000

As you have a policy with no sublimit and claim is payable, then the insurance company pays you 100% of the claim amount i.e.$19,000. If the benefit has a deductible, then deductible amount should be paid by you, before the insurance company settles the claim.

What is the difference between a limit and a sublimit?

With the simple comparison we can understand in a better way.

Parameter Limit Sublimit
Definition Limit is the overall maximum coverage available under your policy A sublimit is a specific cap on how much you can claim for certain benefits within that overall policy limit
Example A Tata AIG policy with $50,000 for medical expenses means all eligible medical expenses combined together during your trip. A Tata AIG policy with $50,000 for medical expenses with sublimit on room rent $2,000 per day and maximum 2 days, Surgery $10,000. If there is surgery bill of $12,000. You will get only $10,000 as there is a caping on surgery.
