Are there any credible health insurance plans for parents visiting from India?
Parents don’t have any pre-existing conditions. I heard most plans catering to tourists or visiting family aren’t credible and don’t pay if a hospital visit is ever required or most hospital groups/doctors aren’t willing to accept such plans Are there any credible ones out there?
Avoid patriot America lite. It is not accepted at most urgent cares in Seattle. I had to pay out of pocket for my younger sister when she was visiting and had to go to an urgent care. They make you do a ton of paperwork for filing claims which at the end was not worth my time for the money spent. I am sure they wouldn’t have approved the claim even if I filed.
A neighbor had good luck with insurance bought in India. But the patient was not going to urgent care, rather suffered a heart attack.

What does it say?
Watch from for billing errors and upcoding. Get itemized bills. Remember that the insurance company considers the provider or hospital to be their customer.

Probably not. But ask a lawyer about filing for asylum to be eligible for coverage from the exchange.
