Travel insurance — does anything actually cover complications from elective surgery abroad?

Every normal travel policy I read excludes "elective or cosmetic procedures". Has anyone found a policy that covers complications, or is the plan just to have savings set aside?

    Most standard policies exclude it, yeah. There are specialist "medical travel" / complications policies in some countries — read the fine print on what counts as a complication and whether you have to be treated back home vs in Korea. Your regular travel insurance can still matter for the non-surgery parts of the trip.
