Q:I am interested in getting an insurance that could cover as much maternity as possible, my situation is the following: I do NOT have US nationality. I have Spain nationality (Europe) where I currently reside and live. I would be interested to have a maternity covered insurance in the US so if I get pregnant I could go on my 7th month of my pregnancy, as a visitor/tourist to the US, where I have family, to stay and wait to deliver my baby over there. I currently have an insurance called IMG which covered my first pregnancy in the US and at the moment I am looking at other insurance options before I renew my current one. 1. Which plan will I be eligible for my situation (Spain nationality delivering in the US as a visitor) that would covers the most for maternity in the US? 2. How much do you cover for maternity? 3. Do I have to add up any rider or does the insurance itself already include maternity? 4. What are the deductible amounts? 5. Is there a maternity waiting period? what is it? 6. Does the plan include also any checkups, ultrasounds, appointments, lactation or any other tests related etc before AND after the baby delivery? 7. Does the plan include c-sections or any other complications that the delivery or pregnancy may have? 8. Does the plan include any emergencies (if necessary) for the baby after the birth? For how many days/weeks? 9. What about a pediatrician for the baby first weeks of live? Would that be covered? 10. Does my previous current insurance maternity expenses from my first baby add up and count in your plans or do I start as a right new member with you and have the full amount you offer covered? 11. Which hospitals and clinics does your maternity plan cover in the US?

Q:Hello, I'm a student, permanent resident for 4 years, green card holder for almost 4 years. Is visitor care considered as health insurance? Can I submit it to my college as proof of having health insurance? I just need it for one year.

Q:Planning to buy Atlas America Policy for my visiting parents at USA, regarding deductible I found this statement "Per policy period deductible: You pay the deductible only once during the entire policy period, irrespective of how many times you get sick or injured during the policy period" My Question, our plan is go to month over month renewal of insurance. So the certificate period change every month. Eg: if I take insurance for whole June, I am responsible for 100 dollars deductible and if extend to July I am still responsible for 100 dollars deductible irrespective of I already paid/consumed deductible in June? Please clarify

A:
In Atlas America plan deductible is per policy period. So as long as you renew the same policy you will have same certificate number that means it's continuous policy so you don't need pay deductible again. More information on renewal of the policy can be found here. Please feel free to contact us if you have any further questions.
