Yes but I insure mainly for medical care and evacuation costs not for trip costs. Travel policies insuring $500 worth of travel / accommodations but offering adequate medical and a million in medical evacuation are inexpensive. Nowadays covid contingencies / quarantine are also a factor.

As a doc I occasionally see patients get sick or injured away from home who face enormous bills for medical transport. The highest one: $250,000 - cash.
