SHORT-TERM VISITS TO THE UNITED STATES.
Each year, the United States hosts millions of foreign visitors from all over the world. While the United States healthcare system is recognized as one of the best in the world, many visitors are concerned about the potential out-of-pocket expenses that could result from an injury or sickness during their visit to the United States of America. Healthcare costs are different in the United States than any other country around the world. Some recent examples:
- $989,000 has been paid to cover the medical costs of treating a traveler who suffered a stroke. This includes $78,000 for an air ambulance back to the UK.
- $328,000 to treat a brain hemorrhage and broken shoulder suffered by a traveler when he fell off a cycle.
- $42,000 to pay for a four day hospital stay to treat a 12 year-old girl who caught pneumonia on a school trip. The travel insurer also paid for the cost of flying out a member of the family to be with her.
That is why foreign national visiting the United States of America require VISITORS medical insurance to protect them and their family!
