Visitors health travel medical insurance

[submittedviaemail]

am interested in buying a personal health travel insurance.

Since I am completely new to this area, I would be highly grateful if
you could answer a few queries.

1. I am a medical student and I will be travelling to US in early 2010
for a period of 3-4 months, for academic purpose, on a B-1 visa. Which
insurance plan will be best suited for me? I have gone through the
information provided on the website.

2. There are various quoted amounts against different deductible
amounts. What does this 'deductible' mean clearly?

3. If I buy an insurance now, what documents will I get and how much
time will it take? I need to apply to the US universities with a proof
of personal health insurance.

Thank you for your interest in purchasing health insurance.

1. You can consider buying Patriot America plan, available at https://www.insubuy.com/patriot-america-insurance/
2. If you were to get sick or injured, deductible is the amount you will have to pay first before the insurance would pay anything.
3. Around half an hour after you purchase the insurance, you would be able to download all the documents (id card, policy wording etc.) from https://www.insubuy.com/clients/ Those documents will also be mailed to you by regular postal mail the next business day. Regarding how long those documents would take to reach you, I suggest that you contact your local post office and ask them how long it usually takes them to reach the document from the US to your town in India.

Pleaes let me know if you have any other questions.
