Good day, The inter-agency task force on COVID-19 decided not to allow non-essential travels abroad. Spokesman Harry Roque said the IATF reversed its decision because only one health and travel insurance firm agreed to provide insurance for non-essential outbound trips. I want to ask for the clarifications : 1. Who is the insurance firm that can provide health and travel insurance as required by the IATF? 2. Who are the insurance firms to apply for the travel and health insurance products in compliance with the IATF guidelines?
