International Health Insurance in the USA

Local health insurance

The United States does not have a single, unified national healthcare system but a complex network of private insurers, Medicare for seniors, and Medicaid for low-income residents. Treatment costs are famously high, and people without employer-based insurance must obtain a policy on their own. Moreover, local coverage often does not apply to international travel.

International health insurance

An international health insurance policy has a crucial advantage here, as it provides coverage for medical treatments worldwide, secures expensive stays abroad, and protects against potentially crippling debts. It also facilitates access to high-quality medical care in other countries.
