Travel medical insurance for Spanish citizens stranded in the USA because of Coronavirus
The COVID-19 pandemic has really changed the shape of travel for the time being. I have recently gotten many calls from Spanish citizens who have told me their insurance coverage from Spain is now voided since the Spain government has now asked all Spanish citizens to stay in Spain and avoid non-essential travel. Many of our Spanish friends were already out of the country and enjoying warmer climes in the US and/ or have altered their travel plans.If you have any doubts as to your coverage, we urge to to check on your benefits with your insurance provider and know that we have alternatives should you need coverage now (even though you are already in the US) either due to cancellation or expiration of the policy.
There are currently three US insurance providers namely Trawick International, INF insurance and Global Underwriters who offer US Visitors insurance coverage for coronavirus.

Spain remains a hugely popular tourist attraction for US nationals with over a million Americans visiting Spain annually. As a meeting point of many historic civilizations – from Europe across the Pyrenees at one end to crossing Gibraltar and from North Africa and the Arabian peninsula at the other end, Spain offers myriad fascinating cultural and historic centers. The two major destinations of course are its largest cities, Madrid and Barcelona, which are two of the most visited cities in Europe.

Insurance for Spanish students in the United States
There are over 7000 Spanish students currently studying in the United States. The student body is split fairly evenly between Graduate and Undergraduate students with another 10% in the Optional Practical Training (OPT) status.Given the costly healthcare system in the United States it is important for students from Spain to buy proper student medical insurance while in the United States. While most colleges offer student insurance, the college student insurance is quite expensive, so students would prefer outside student insurance if the university allows it. The international student insurance plans that we offer are cheaper than University student insurance plans while providing similar coverage. Our OPT student insurance plans are also very popular with Spanish students on the Optional Practical Training (OPT) status
