Question:

Hello, I am a USA citizen that has been working in South Africa for the past year. I intend to stay here for at least another 6 months, and as I am changing jobs, my existing insurance policy through CISI is ending. I would like to purchase insurance for the remainder of my time here. I will be traveling back to the USA on 5 July 2016 to renew my visa, and I need to show proof of insurance coverage for this application. I will be in the USA from 6 July 2017 - 1 August 2017, and then returning to South Africa until 01 Feb 2018. I am also going to return for a short visit to the USA from 13 Sept 2017 - 1 Oct 2017. Do you offer any plans that would cover health insurance for me while in South Africa as well as for my two short trips to the USA? If not, what plan would you recommend for me that would cover me for South Africa? I am a healthy 30 year old female with no pre-existing conditions.

Answer:

You may purchase the Diplomat America plan, which will provide coverage while visiting the U.S. You may purchase the Patriot International to provide coverage while residing outside of the U.S. Please use the link provided to review the plan options, and purchase. You may also purchase over the phone by contacting our office at (866) INSUBUY.
