Q:My daughter and I live in China and will be going back to the US for an extended stay of 13 months. Leaving 7/24/2017 and returning approx 8/22/2018. We would live a health insurance plan that will cover us during our stay. It looks like the diplomat america is the only plan and it cannot be renewed after the first year. What are your suggestions? We are both US citizens.

A:
Unfortunately, as a U.S. citizen you cannot purchase a visitor's insurance plan. You are by law required to have a plan that is ACA compliant for the year and one month that you will reside back in the United States. As you are considered as coming home and within the United States U.S. citizenship will take precedence. It is recommended that you look into domestic insurance options to avoid being penalized for not having a compliant plan. If you would provide the state in which you will be visiting we can see if we have any domestic insurance options available for you.

Q:I would like to receive a price quote for our 18 employees. They will be flying from the USA to Israel and then to Greece. The insurance should also cover winter sports and activities (such as ski/snowboard, etc.) and their laptops. The dates are: Feb. 5th till Feb. 9th 2017. We have Americans employees and also foreign employees that work and live in the US. All of our foreign employees have a working visa in the US, they have health insurance and a residential address. I just want to make sure that our foreign employees are eligible for your travel insurance as well as the Americans employees.

A:
We have a plan called Atlas Group Insurance that will cover your employees while traveling. This plan does include coverage for the winter sports as mentioned but will not cover their laptops. There is a benefit for lost luggage but that would not cover damage if that is what you are looking for. The medical plans do not generally cover personal property. Since we do not have the ages or other required details of the employees we would not be able to provide a quote but the quote can be obtained through the link below. If you would like for us to calculate the cost then please provide the ages, citizenships, and state for the employees. If you need additional assistance please feel free to contact our office.
