Partly: some K&R policies, like Chubb's, pay emergency political repatriation expenses, but medical and routine evacuation belong under travel-assistance cover. Partly. Chubb's primary K&R policy includes an Emergency Political Repatriation Expenses insuring clause, which pays to get people out when a political crisis makes a location unsafe. Its listed insuring clauses don't include medical evacuation. If you need someone flown out after an illness or injury, that's a travel-assistance or medical-evacuation benefit, so check you have it elsewhere. On the K&R quote, ask what event triggers repatriation, which costs count, who arranges the transport and whether it shares the main limit. ## More Questions About Kidnap and Ransom Insurance - [Does K&R Cover Crisis Consultants?](https://thegeneralaverage.com/insurance-faq/kidnap-ransom/does-kr-cover-crisis-consultants) - [Does K&R Cover Family Members?](https://thegeneralaverage.com/insurance-faq/kidnap-ransom/does-kr-cover-family-members) - [Does K&R Cover Employees?](https://thegeneralaverage.com/insurance-faq/kidnap-ransom/does-kr-cover-employees) - [Does K&R Cover International Travel?](https://thegeneralaverage.com/insurance-faq/kidnap-ransom/does-kr-cover-international-travel) ## Coverage Guides Related to Kidnap and Ransom Insurance - [Kidnap and ransom](https://thegeneralaverage.com/coverage/kidnap-ransom) ## Sources for This Answer 1.
