Can I get maternity coverage in the USA

Question: I live in UK and I travel regularly to USA to visit my boyfriend. I am planning to get pregnant soon and would like to find out about getting a plan with maternity benefits that is honored in United States. Can you give me some ideas? Thank you.

We can offer plans that will provide you with comprehensive maternity cover anywhere in the world including the UK and USA. Maternity plans will cover you for pre and ante natal maternity costs, regular delivery costs, and in many cases will offer a newborn benefit that will allow your child to receive medical treatment should there be any health concerns. International health insurance plans that we can offer will provide you with comprehensive medical protection anywhere in the world, so even if you decide to relocate to a country outside of Europe or the USA, your plan will travel with you.

It is important however, to be aware that many international health insurance plans will have a waiting period attached to the maternity and newborn coverage benefits. In the case of maternity, the shortest waiting period will normally be 10 months. This means that you cannot make a claim for any maternity related treatment until 10 months from the start of the plan. In regards to newborn coverage, the shortest waiting period will usually be 6 months.

International health insurance plans can provide you with additional coverage options outside of maternity. With benefits that include out-patient, dental, and emergency evacuation, you can be assured that you will have the protection that you deserve no matter what the situation is.
