These are certainly scary times for everyone particularly for travelers currently stranded in the US. It is heartrending to know of so many stranded travelers in the US who are unable to travel back to their home country. We do not know how long this situation will last, but are getting calls from many stranded travelers asking for travel health insurance in the US. Currently there are a few travel medical insurance options for people already in the US, however we cannot guarantee how much longer these plans are available. We have seen US travel insurance providers either reduce or even discontinue coverage for COVID-19 due to the global pandemic. If you are an international traveler in the US and do not have travel health insurance or if it will run out soon, do consider buying an alternative international travel insurance plan right away while options are available.

Type of travel insurance
- Fixed benefits or scheduled benefits - These plans have a list of medical benefits, over and above which the plan will not pay. While these plans tend to have lower premiums, the out of pocket costs (the cost borne by the customer that are over and above the fixed benefit) may be quite high.
- Comprehensive Plans - These plans are more flexible than fixed plans and do not have fixed ceilings for various medical benefits. Because they provide more extensive coverage they also cost more. Click here for more information.
