Q: Could you please confirm if I
as a foreigner in the US for 2 months could get on to Value Health
Plan?
A: While you could get on the
insurance plan there probably would not be much benefit for you; this
is not the usual type of insurance that a person coming to the U.S.
would use. Please see the "international medical insurance" listings at
http://FreedomBenefits.net son International" that would likely be far
more useful for your situation.
