Question:

I will be traveling to the United States (Chicago, IL) from Budapest, Hungary, on June 18.2016 and returning from Chicago to Budapest on July 7th. 2016. So my length of stay is June 18 - July 8. The home institution I'll be residing at, has the following criteria for acceptable insurance: Northwestern University insurance requirements Health insurance must, at a minimum, meet the following requirements: - Medical benefits of at least $100,000 per accident or illness - Coverage for repatriation of remains in the amount of $25,000 (does not apply to B1 visa holders) - $50,000 for expenses associated with medical evacuation - Deductible not to exceed $250 per accident or illness - Co-insurance provision can be no greater than 25% - Out-of-pocket expenses not to exceed $2,000 per year - Pre-existing conditions must be covered (no exclusions, no waiting period) - Mental health - Shall not unreasonably exclude coverage for perils inherent to the activities of the program in which the exchange visitor participates - Must include inpatient and outpatient coverage for both sickness and accident - Will cover at least 80% of usual and customary charges in the Chicago area - Shall provide benefits for prescription drugs, and pregnancy. Please let me know if you have a plan that can cover all of the above mentioned requirements. (I am 27 years old, Hungarian citizen, no pre-existing condition.)

Answer:

Unfortunately, since one requirement is that pre-existing conditions must be covered with no exclusions or waiting period then we would not have a plan to meet all requirements. You may have to contact the University to see if they offer a plan.
