Visitor Travel Health Insurance FAQ - 3

	Is the insurance plan refundable should I leave the country during its validity?
	Some insurance plans do refund money if given enough advance notice, however since travelers insurance is typically for a short duration, they are often not refundable. If this situation is a concern for you, you should look out for insurance plans which are renewable. Such plans are available among the plans listed in our comparison engine.

	What is the proof of my purchasing insurance?
	When you purchase insurance online, you will immediately receive a confirmatory email with details of the insurance. This is the virtual insurance card, and it is prudent to print this and to keep a backup of this email. You will also receive an insurance card from the insurance company by mail. This card will have your name, policy number, group number, insurance company's contact information such as the toll-free telephone number and the address where claims should be submitted.

	How do I purchase the insurance? When does the insurance take effect?
	Purchasing insurance online is very simple. From our compare engine, you can click on the 'Buy' button in the first column. This leads you to the appropriate online application form. You have to complete the appropriate online application form and you will immediately receive an email acknowledgement which is the virtual ID card. The coverage will start from the start date as indicated on the form. Within a week you will receive a package from the insurance company, which will include the insurance card and a hard copy with details regarding the insurance plan.

	Can I purchase insurance for only part of the stay of my parents in the US?
	Yes you can purchase for only partial duration of the entire stay. However the purpose of purchasing insurance is in the event of unanticipated medical emergencies. One can never be sure when such an emergency can happen. Having purchased insurance for part of their stay will not help in the event of an emergency during the uninsured period.
