Travel Medical Insurance

Question:

I'm looking to purchase a 2 month comprehensive medical policy which can cover for Covid 19 treatment for a healthy 55 year old family member who will be visiting from outside the US. I'm debating between the Atlas America versus Patriot America Plus plans ($1 million policy with a $2,500 deductible). Besides the extra $100 cost for the Atlas America, the other downside seems to be that you have to get medical care within 24 hours for the acute onset of a pre-existing condition. The only upside for the Atlas America plan seems to be that it covers 100% after the deductible even for out-of network. Is there any other benefit for the Atlas American plan such as fewer claim denials, etc? Thank you!

Answer:

Please note that for acute onset of pre-existing conditions coverage, you need to take the treatment within the next 24 hours and that is true in all the plans including in Patriot America Plus as well as in Atlas America. 

You can compare Atlas America vs Patriot America Plus side-by-side.
