Advantages Of Visitors Care Insurance Policy

by Ray Sondeo

Visitor Care Insurance is a visitor insurance policy which offers affordable and beneficial coverage for individuals outside their homeland. Since senior citizens who are more than 65 years old are also eligible for coverage, this is a popular choice among parents or overseas travelers who travel to the US.

This visitors insurance plan can be purchased even by non US citizens who are planning for an overseas trip. The initial coverage period for individuals who have crossed 65 years should start within just 30 days of arrival in the country. Otherwise, the traveler should provide adequate proof of any other valid health insurance coverage. Individuals who are not in the US while applying should mention the expected arrival date clearly in enrollment form.

The Visitors Care Insurance plan covers various popular health care services like prescription drug coverage, out-patient treatment, local ambulance transport and emergency intensive care, dental injuries due to accidents, surgeries, doctor consultation, private nursing care, diagnostic tests and hospitalization charges.

Individuals consulting a medical professional who is a part of the PPO (Preferred Provider Organization) network would entitle treatment at subsidized prices and also reduce the out-of-pocket costs to the maximum.

The effective start of the plan begins when the insurance provider receives the completed enrollment form along with the initial premium payment. Otherwise, it begins on the departure date of the insured from the homeland. Individuals can also mention their preferred effective start date, if any, in the application form.

The visitor health insurance policy will be valid till the return date of the insured back to the native country or the lapse or expiry of the visitor care insurance policy or the date of coverage specified in the application form.

Visitors Care travel health insurance policy offers three different insurance plan options with different policy maximums. The minimum purchase period of this visitor medical insurance plan is 5 days and can be purchased at a time for up to a period of 1 year. The travel medical insurance plan can be renewed for a maximum period of 24 months at a time.

Cancellation requests should be submitted before the effective start date of the Visitor Care insurance plan in order to get full refund. Otherwise, refunds would be given on a pro rated basis provided the insured has not filed for any claims under the medical insurance plan after deducting a nominal cancellation processing fee.
