Q:I want to know how long does it take before I can use the insurance, after buying one. For example, if I buy it today, can I use it tomorrow?

A:
Yes, you can purchase the plan one day to be effective the next. The plan will cover any new illness or injury that occurs after the effective date. The plans will not cover any pre-existing condition or preventative care. So if someone is currently sick and you purchase the plan then take them to the doctor the next day, that would not be covered.

Q:I just purchased "Atlas America" insurance through Insubuy for one of my parents (71 years old) who will be visiting me in the US shortly. The coverage is for $100K with a $2500 deductible. In addition to the above, I am also considering purchase of "Patriot Platinum Plus" for the same parent with $100K coverage and $10,000 deductible. I wanted to understand how to use the two insurance coverages together in case of an emergency incident. I have the following specific questions: - Which of the above insurance should I use first (assuming that the hospital used is part of the First Health Network)? - Does the insurance that I use second, cover the deductible of the insurance that was used first?

A:
It is not recommended that you purchase the Patriot Platinum Plus plan as you would then have 2 secondary insurance plans and this can get very cumbersome when it comes time for claims. It is recommended that you purchase a plan called Safe Travels USAas this plan will act as a primary insurance and will coordinate benefits with the Atlas America plan that you have purchased. In purchasing the Safe Travel USA plan with a $50K maximum it will be less expensive and you will have a Primary and a Secondary plan rather than 2 secondary plans.

Q:Coris Hertiage procrastinated review and then bailed saying it was a preexisting cond We purchased a policy from Coris Heritage for my mother so she could visit us in the U.S. Unfortunately she had to be hospitalized during her stay with us. We initially submitted the medical claim to April USA in Florida, but they told us after a month that they no longer handled India issued policies. We then contacted Coris Heritage to process the claim. They wanted to review the claim with their in-house doctor and subsequently informed us that the claim would not be paid due to pre-existing condition. My mother was diagnosed with an epilectic attack, which was definitely not a pre-existing condition. She traveled with medications for her pre-existing conditions such as diabetes and high blood pressure, but not epilepsy as it had not been a pre-existing condition. WE feel that Coris Heritage was looking for any reason to deny the claim and latched onto any one of the possible conditions mentioned in the discharge report as the possible cause of the epileptic attack.

A:
I am sorry to hear that you are having difficulties with your claim. I recommend that you purchase the insurance from an US based company the next time. Hi Insubuy.. What is your policy fo sudden epileptic attack which is not pre existing?
