For example, with Access America, the only way you would know that a family member cannot be the doctor that advises you not to travel would be in the definition for physician. Another example from the same company would be under family member definition, a cousin is not included but soon to be adopted children are. Those things could be the deciding factor in a claim.

It is a VERY important part of the policy! (yes, I'm an insurance professional, although not in travel or health insurance) (and yes, I have purchased travel insurance, and part of my reading of the policy included a detailed perusal of the definitions!)
