Why You Need International Student Medical Insurance

Being away from home in a foreign country has its challenges, which might include getting medical care when you are sick. Your international student insurance can help you find a doctor and could reimburse you for unexpected healthcare costs you might face as you study abroad.

The StudentSecure Elite plan from WorldTrips is designed to:

  • Ensure you meet your visa or school requirements. The Elite plan meets or exceeds requirements for most visas (including the J-1 visa) and satisfies requirements of many programs and universities. You’ll get a visa letter you can use as proof of coverage.

  • Provides the most overall coverage.  StudentSecure Elite’s overall maximum coverage limit is $5,000,000—the highest of the StudentSecure plans. It also provides the most benefits and higher benefit limits.

  • Help you find a doctor, hospital, or pharmacy. Your plan comes with travel assistance services available 365 days a year. Give us a call if you need a referral or help navigating a travel or health emergency.

How International Student Insurance Works in Action

  • Before discharging you from the hospital following treatment for a severe allergic reaction, your doctor writes you a prescription for steroids that you need to take for the next week.

You head to the local pharmacy to pick up your prescription, knowing that your elite-level international student health insurance plan provides 100% coverage for eligible generic, outpatient prescription drugs.

  • You’re exploring a busy marketplace when you accidentally bump into a vendor’s stall and knock over a pottery display. Several pieces of pottery are damaged beyond repair, resulting in a financial loss for the vendor.

You purchased the StudentSecure Elite plan—the only StudentSecure plan that provides coverage for personal liability. This means you will be covered for up to $250,000 of eligible expenses resulting from damage to third-person property.

  • You’ve been studying abroad for nearly a year, and your mom encourages you to get a wellness exam to ensure you’re healthy.

StudentSecure Elite is the only StudentSecure international student insurance plan that offers preventative care benefits. After 6 months of continuous coverage, you are covered for up to $200 of eligible expenses resulting from preventative care, which could include a checkup at a local doctor’s office.
