Question:

79 turning 80 during trip to USA I am from North Carolina. I am bringing my parents to the US on March 29,2016. My father is 79 years now and he will be turning 80 years on March 30,2016. When I search on Insubuy website for a suitable insurance plan for him, should I give his age as 79 or 80? If I buy an insurance plan for my father with his age as 79 and after his arrival in the US ,he turns 80 and I go to a doctor, will he still be eligible for all the coverage his insurance plan qualifies? Kindly clarify .

Answer:

Thank you for your interest in purchasing insurance through us. If you purchase the plan before his 80th birthday then you would enter his age as 79. The plan we would recommend is the Patriot America. If you purchase the plan while he is 79 he will have the same coverage for one year as long as you extend the same policy. If you renew the plan beyond one year then be treated as 80 and the coverage will reduce and the price will increase. Or if you forget to renew the policy then you have to buy a new policy with his current age that will be 80yrs.
