How much will be premium fr this insurance?If travel insurance don't cover it, then which kind of insurance will cover it and what cost we will have to bear?

Answer:

Thank you for contacting Insubuy for your insurance needs. All the plans on the market for visitors are designed to cover the new illnesses or injuries that manifest in the body after the effective date of the policy. They will exclude the coverage for pre-existing conditions, preventative or routine care. The expected knee surgery would not be covered under any plan on the market, but you may purchase a Visitor Medical Insurance plan to protect yourself from the new, unexpected things.
