Visitors Medical Insurance??

please make a note that NO insurance (atleast as far I know...cos I did a lotsa research..) covers pre existing conditions..

If you are going to get it from India ..the claims might be difficult..

Make a deep research before you buy one....and dont forget to post your experience.

Thank a lot AC and Shravantika.

I was trying to get it here only since I too heard that claims in India is very difficult.
This is for my mother who otherwise has no pre-existing conditions.Given that,can you give me the names of the insurances.

Hi sunitha,

check out this site

Visitor Health Insurance, Pre-existing condition coverage, AIG

one of my cousin took the insurance with them for her in-laws and told that it is good.
but they dont cover any pre-existing conditions.

i think you can have this for your mom as she dont have any pre-existing conditions.
and you can call them if you need any clarifications.

Hope this helps

Thanks a lot,SLP,will look into this.

you are welcome

Hi Sunitha,

I bought the visitor's insurance from IMG. The coverage was under Patriot America. I bought the comprehensive coverage (of course no pre-existing conditions was covered) but I was happy with what I got.

You can look into this one also.

Thanks Aarushi.

We just purchased the insurance from Seven Corners Inc and have got the card too last week.Let's see how this works.

Hi
It is better to take the insurance in the US as the claims if any can be settled easily there. In India to get claims settled whether overseas or within the country itself is a marathon task. You need a lot of patience and ingenuity to get anything done here. Generally the mediclaim insurance in India try how not to pay you.

I guess the best rates that I've some across are at Travel Insurance - InsureMyTrip.com and Travel Insurance - InsureMyVisa.com (for visas mainly) - you can compare different agencies and plans and rates and these have toll-free tel nos here for all queries...check it out,

Hope this helps, lemme know
