The continuous travel insurance (reisverzekering) is another popular insurance in the Netherlands, especially for people who have to travel frequently (expats, for example). This insurance, which can also be applicable to your partner and other family members, covers loss or theft of luggage, medical costs and assistance, cancellation costs, and many other risks involved in travelling. Note that your standard Health Insurance will also insure you for medical expenses abroad.  Travellers to the US and Canada are often advised to take out additional travel insurance because of the excessive difference in healthcare expenses in those countries, which will not be covered by our national insurance (which outside Europe only covers 200% of the expenses on a national level).
