Q:I am a J-1 Visa Exchange student who will be studying at the University of Virginia for the 2017 Fall Semester. I am a New Zealand Citizen and live in New Zealand. The University of Virginia requires International Exchange students to have Comparable Coverage Health Insurance Which of your insurance plans would cover all of the requirements below?: "In order to be considered comparable coverage, a student's health plan must meet the following seven specific requirements for 2017-2018: 1. The plan is provided by a company licensed to do business in the United States with (a) a U.S. claim payment office, (b) a U.S. telephone number, (c) plan literature available in English, and (d) benefits provided in accordance with the Affordable Care Act (ACA). The following programs do NOT qualify as comparable coverage: 1. Travel insurance does NOT qualify. Travel insurance is in effect for a short period of time (60-90 days, for example) and is designed for brief trips. 2. Reimbursement programs of any kind do NOT qualify, including reimbursement arrangements or vouchers from home governments or their U.S. based consulates. 2. The plan provides both in-patient care and outpatient care (including visits for behavioral health care) within a 75-mile radius of the Charlottesville area. Coverage for emergency-only care does NOT satisfy this requirement. 3. The plan provides unlimited coverage for major medical benefits per sickness or injury. Insurance that fails to cover or limits coverage for pre-existing conditions is NOT acceptable. 4. The coverage will remain in effect for all semesters in which the student is enrolled for the 2017-2018 academic year. 5. You will be held financially responsible for payment of all charges not covered by your health insurance plan. 6. The plan provides a minimum of $10,000 in coverage for repatriation/medical evacuation to my home country or return of mortal remains. If you have a parent or spouse who lives in the United States and will assume financial responsibility for any such costs, you may waive out of this requirement provided you are not a J-1/J-2 visa holder. 7. The plan does not have a deductible greater than $500.00 (U.S.)."
