Question:

Parents visiting USA with Pre-existing condition Hi, i am planning to purchase medical insurance for my parents who will stay in US for four month. I have a question about one of benefits in your plan. My father had stent implantation surgery five years ago. If he feel uncomfortable, i take him to visit cardiologist. Does this belong to on-set of pre-existing conditions or general physical check up? Thanks

Answer:

Hello, Thank you for contacting Insubuy for your insurance needs. Simply visiting a cardiologist for discomfort is considered to be a general physical check up with a specialist related to a pre-existing condition, and this is not typically covered. An acute onset of a pre-existing condition is something that is life threating . Please use the link below to see a detailed explanation on an acute onset of a pre-existing condition.

Thanks for your response. Actually i am planning to take my parents to cardiologist when they come US. Does this belong to routine physical check up? Is there a plan which fits my situation? Thanks


Hello, Unfortunately, there is no plan on the market that will cover for any routine checkups for visitors. There is no plan on the market that will cover such visits. If you are wanting to take them for a preventative checkup this will be any your own expense. If you need any further clarification please feel free to contact our office.


One more question. If my parents have a cold or something uncomfortable, they need to visit doctor. Is this covered by your insurance? Thanks


Insurance will pay for whatever treatment medically necessary as long as it’s not pre-existing or preventive care. So as long as cold or flu is new sickness that will be covered.
