Examples:

1. Pre-Trip Medical Advice: Based on a traveller's health insurance information and destination, generative AI can create personalised reports outlining potential health risks and recommended vaccinations. It can also suggest reputable medical facilities in the area covered by the traveller's insurance.

‍

2. Emergency Response Optimisation: In case of a medical emergency, generative AI can analyse emergency contact information stored in travel apps or wearable devices. It can then automatically generate personalised alerts for nominated emergency contacts, including the traveller's location, health insurance details and any relevant medical history.

‍

3. AI-powered Medical Interpretation: For travellers visiting destinations with different languages, generative AI can translate medical instructions or prescriptions provided by local healthcare providers, ensuring clear understanding of treatment plans.

‍

4. Generative Risk Mitigation Reminders: Based on a traveller's health insurance coverage and planned activities, generative AI can create personalised reminders for travellers. These reminders may include suggestions to purchase additional travel insurance for high-risk activities (e.g. extreme sports) or inform them about specific medical precautions (e.g. mosquito repellent for malaria-prone regions).
