Question:

I am a student, and my parent will be visiting me from India on 17th May and stay here for 5 months. I need to buy a heath insurance by the next week. My father is 81 yrs and my mother is 73 yrs. Based on this criteria, I searched on your website and found 2 plans that I can afford. Safe travel for Visitiors to the USA - Diamond Underwriter - GBG Insurance Comment: Provides coverage till 90 yrs and has PPO in my town Ames, Iowa, but has B+ rating Visitor Care Underwriter - Sirius International Comment: Doesn't distinguish between Heart care Rider and acute onset of pre existing conditions, but has A+ rating I just wanted to check if these are good enough for my parents. If you can suggest anything else, I will have a look at them. But I must tell you this, that I am a Phd student and live on my stipend and also send money to my parents from that stipend. I have no other source of income so comprehensive plans are beyond what I can pay. Thanks for your consideration and look forward to your advise

Thank you for contacting Insubuy for your insurance needs.

At your parents ages we would typical advised taking a look at the fixed coverage plan Safe Travels for Visitors to the USA Diamond plan. If you are not considering comprehensive plans.

This plan will offer more coverage than the visitor care plan if you are comparing these 2 fixed coverage plans. 

The company that administrator this plan is very reputable and well known.
