Visitors Medical Insurance??

Hi all,

Can anyone please suggest me the type of health insurance available for the visitors(parents) who come to US in visitor visa? I dont have any idea about this. so please let me know what and all insurance we have to get for them when they are arriving US and where can we get it.

Thank you all.

Ask ur parents to check out National insurance in India itself. It covers medical ins, loss of baggage etc.

thank you very much for the reply. i will ask my parents to inquire.

Hi,

ICICI Lombard is pretty good too. My parents bought insurance from them while visiting US.

hi
my inlaws are visiting US in the near future,from india...my fil is 63 yr old and mil is 54 yr old..please suggest some good travel insurance ,that is of reasonable cost...what other insurance,do they need......
also, provide me some tips ,on what are all the things to consider for taking travel insurance.......

it is better to get it from India. travel agents can help.

I dont think they really need travel insurance. I got my parents health insurance with ICICI. I think thats the really cheap one compared to all other plans

I feel its always better to get insurance from US itself. Indian based insurance companies are notorious for not paying up on flimsiest of excuses.

PS: There is already a thread on Visitors insurance so I'm merging your thread with this one...http://www.indusladies.com/forums/im...insurance.html

Hopefully you'll get a much better picture after going through it.

I agree with Aarushi, In my opinion it is better to get insurance form US, atleast you'll be having access to them over phone. ICICI reputation is not good, pls check immihelp.com and path2usa.com. They have lot of complaints agains ICICI. My grandmom is coming here next month and I'll get her insurance from here only. Hope it helps.
