Question:

Visitors Coverage.............. Planning to bring our parents for a visit to USA and Canada........ Could you please suggest the best visitors insurance which will also cover med-evac for our Dad (75 yrs) and a good coverage for Mom (61 yrs) as well? Two imp queries: 1. Is blood-work covered in your insurance? Dad needs to get blood-work done every 4 months for his kidney disease. 2. If a doctor prescribes a medication for either of them, will that also be covered? 3. Would we need two separate insurance coverages for both countries (Canada and USA)?

Answer:

Thank you for your interest in purchasing visitors medical insurance for your parents. 0. Please note the emergency medical evacuation is the transportation to the nearest place where adequate care can be given. If something happens to them, it does not mean it would automatically transport them to India. Please read /emergency-medical-evacuation-to-india/ for more information. 1. Blood-work is covered as long as it is for the new medical condition that occurs after the effective date of the policy. In his case, something that he already needs routinely would not be covered. 2. Again, if it is for a new medical condition that occurs after the effective date of the policy, it would be covered. If they need anything for pre-existing conditions, that would not be covered. 3. You don't have to buy separate insurance plans for US/Canada. We have the plans available that would cover them in both the places. Please visit https://www.insubuy.com and enter the coverage area as 'International Including USA'. Please feel free to contact us at any time if you have any other questions.
