New ‘travel and care’ app from ERV
Travel insurance provider ERV has announced the relaunch of its ‘travel and care app’, along with a 30-day free trial period, valid from 19 June.
Features of the app include the ability to find the nearest hospital, pharmacy or embassy to your current location when travelling, and access to security and risk information for the country you are in, updated in real-time 24/7 and transmitted as push notifications. The hospitals to which ERV will point a traveller will include ‘preferred partner’ facilities that have been audited by ERV, to be used as a quality index.
Additionally, travellers can use the app to find their nearest police station, petrol station or cash machine, and access a PIN-protected ‘document safe’ in which they can store their travel insurance policy and other important travel documentation.
