I am looking for the health insurance which has these minimum requirements. I am going on a J1 visa to Rice University in Houston as a short term scholar from June 25th to August 5th. Could you orient me as to which one is best for me? - Medical benefits of at least $100,000 for each accident or illness (a higher benefit is better) - Medical evacuation in the amount of $50,000, should you need to be sent home on the advice of a doctor - Repatriation of remains in the amount of $25,000, should you die while in the U.S. - Coverage must include the semester for which you are at Rice University - Maximum deductible of $500 per condition per plan year - A pre-existing "wait period" limitation of no more than six months - The policy must be backed by the full faith and credit of home country government (for those covered by their home country's national insurance plan), or the company providing the insurance must meet minimum rating requirements established by the U.S. government (an A.M. Best rating of "A-" or above, an Insurance Solvency International, Ltd. (ISI) rating of "A-i" or above, a Standard & Pool's Claims-paying Ability rating of "A-" or above, or a Research, Inc. rating of B+ or above). - Policy must be in English
