Are You Travelling to Disney This Summer?

Would you like to have stress-free trip? We are here to help you!
USA is one of the most popular travel destination around the world. Every summer millions of people come here to spend their vacation or visit family. If it’s your first trip to USA, here is what you need to know about this country:

1. Don’t be surprised to pay more than you see on a store tag because of sales tax. It’s varies depending on what you’re going to buy.
2. Be ready to give tips in restaurants, hotels, SPA, etc. If you’re going to pay with a credit card, you’ll need to write the amount of tip you would like to give on the credit card receipt and add it to the total number on the receipt.
3.  Public transportation is often very limited or not available at all in a lot of cities around USA. Roads can be very busy and difficult to navigate, especially if you don’t know English very well. That’s why you need to decide in advance how you’re going to travel in USA and maybe rent a car with good navigation system.
4. Make sure to have a valid credit/debit card. It’s the most popular way of making purchases and payments in USA.
5. Don’t use your cell phone. If you want to save money, you can buy local prepaid cellphone plan or use public Wi-Fi.
6. USA is a country with one of the most expensive prices for medical services and if you get sick here, it might cost you thousands of dollars. Please buy visitor insurance before you leave your home country. Here you can quote and apply for visitor health insurance plans provided by India Network Services.
7. USA uses a different measure system – distance in miles, temperature in Fahrenheit, weight in pounds, and height in feet.

Special Visitor Insurance Plans With Comprehensive Pre-Existing Conditions Coverage in Florida

For most insurance companies, insured persons must seek medical attention within 12 or 24 hour window after initial symptoms manifestation in order to be considered. When it comes to extreme conditions like a heart attack or stroke, people need to get immediate care since these conditions can be very severe, and could cost a lot of money and tremendous pressure on family. Any pre-existing coverage that uses “acute onset” definition is likely to deny almost all claims for pre-existing conditions in normal course. In the context of healthcare in the United States, a pre-existing condition such as high blood pressure, diabetes, asthma, etc., is a pre-existing medical condition that started before person’s health benefits went into effect. Many visitors feel healthy and fit but they might have a condition that they don’t know about. Most insurance companies DO NOT cover pre-existing conditions at all and even if they cover, coverage is very limited to Acute onset coverage and recurrence of pre-existing sickness associated with strict time line. There are many exceptions exist and may nullify the benefits when under acute onset definition.

India Network Health Insurance offers CHUBB Network Comprehensive plan and CHUBB Premier Plan for visitors with pre-existing conditions that will help with different life threatening episodes caused by pre-existing conditions as well as doctor visits and out patient care. These plans DO NOT use Acute Onset definition; hence, they provide great coverage with fewer restrictions. CHUBB Premier and Network Plans sponsored by India Network Foundation cover pre-existing conditions, new problems and accidents for inpatient, outpatient care, labs, x-ray and other diagnostic procedures.. These plans are recommended for older people (50 years and up), and for people with pre-existing conditions. Pre-existing condition coverage comes with a separate deductible. CHUBB Network plan and CHUBB Premier plan are the only ones in the country that provide great coverage for elderly parents and grand parents visiting the United States.

CHUBB Network plan covers 80 percent of medical expenses, and the insured is responsible for the remaining 20 percent up to the policy maximum. This is a great plan for older people (50+ years), and people with pre-existing conditions. CHUBB Premier is another cost effective option for people who are looking for pre-existing coverage and willing to take some risk. This is a fixed benefit plan and is more affordable to fit different budgets. All plans offer online application and payment by credit card from anywhere in the World.

India Network Foundation, a non-profit community organization in USA announces immediate availability of visitor health insurance plans covering pre-existing medical conditions for in-patient and out-patient care for all age groups without Acute onset limitations. India Network establishes itself as a trend setter in providing innovative visitor health insurance plan designs oriented towards its members and their families. The main goal of India Network visitor health insurance programs is to provide the best possible cover for elderly visitors from India at the lowest cost possible using only USA based underwriting companies.
