Question:

Insurance Presale Questions My mother is coming to visit me in USA for 74 days and I am planning to take a visitor insurance. I have a few questions. 1 My mother had breast cancer 12 years back and it is completely cured now. Can she take insurance from your website? 2. Indian insurance companies give emergency advance, baggage loss ,loss of passport etc. Do you provide the same? 3. Do you have to notify the insurance company in advance if you want to visit the doctor? Thank you Sunny

Answer:

Thank you for your interest in purchasing visitors insurance for your mother. 1. Yes. Please make sure to read the benefits of each plan as it varies. 2. Some of the plans we offer cover loss of checked luggage or loss of passport etc. However, please note that those are small benefits on the side. Your main concern should be to get proper medical coverage that is easy to use and adequate when you really need it. Please read /visitors-insurance-usa-india-comparison/ to understand the difference between buying from US v India. 3. No. Not for the doctor visit but you do have to notify for major things like surgery, hospitalization etc. That is called pre certification or pre notification. Please read /visitors-insurance-precertification-requirements/ for more details. It would be the easiest if you could kindly call our office and we can go over various plans to find the most suitable one for you.
