Q:Hello. Can you advise on the Safe Travel USA Comprehensive plan? In your brochure on coverage, under "Doctor Visits, X-rays, Prescriptions, Ambulance," the coverage is listed as "Usual customary charge to the selected Medical Maximum." What exactly is the cost then for a general doctor's check-up?

A:
The Safe Travels USA Comprehensive plan does cover the usual customary charge to the selected medical maximum. We do not have information on what a doctor in your are would charge for this event. You would have to reach out to the providers to see what the general cost are for this event.

Q:Please read this and answer, I would like to know if below would be an example of acute onset of pre-existing condition. My mother has diabetes, high cholesterol and high blood pressure which are all very well under control with lifestyle changes and medications. She has never had any complications related to any of these and her tests are all normal. As such we do not expect any complications from these conditions as she goes for constant tests and checkups and everything comes normal. She gets all her medications from India and we are not looking for coverage for those. What I am looking for is coverage of any unexpected acute (life threatening) onset related to any of the conditions above such as heart attack or stroke. Would this type of life threatening onset be fully covered under "Acute onset of pre-existing conditions coverage to policy max for Age < 70" if it were to occur? Please respond to this.

A:
For specific examples of acute onset of a pre-existing condition please refer to Acute Onset FAQ. It explains a great deal of information about what coverage is offered with the acute onset coverage. Most comprehensive plans will offer coverage for the acute onset of a pre-existing condition. As everyone conditions would be different it is not possible for anyone to provide you with a definitive "yes or no" as it relates to covering this specific scenario. It is a possible that a heart attack or stroke could be covered under the acute onset coverage based upon the attending physicians notes and the certificate wording at the time of the claim. Typically, in network providers will bill directly to the insured for covered expenses. If you have any additional questions please contact our office.

Q:I want to purchase some medical insurance for my daughter form Nov 7-15 - she is Canadian but is coming form Norway to the US and then back home to Canada. I tried to purchase a policy for $2.0M with $100 deductible but they kicked me out because I wasn't in the US presently. Can you help me please so she is covered for her spell in the US next month.

A:
If you adjust the policy max you will have more plans to choose from and you will find plans that you can purchase now. Because you put a $2 mil policy max only a couple of plans come up and the Atlas America plan has a Geographic restriction for Canada. If you need additional assistance please feel free to contact our office.
