Health Insurance in US for non Americans

[Doe Be Doe]

So a non US citizen friend of mine will be visiting me for his first visit to the US. He will be here awhile . Can anyone recommend a temporary health insurance program for him?

 

thanks.

I would suggest a travel insurance policy - it is about as temporary as you can gey.   It will take care of large, unexpected medical expenses during his visit but will likely not cover existing conditions.
 

You can also consider World Nomad which is usually more comprehensive and intended for digital nomads that work in various spots - they have a USA coverage option.

 

Getting a traditional policy (Aetna or UHC) is difficult since it is really a full year commitment.

Thanks. Anyone else have thoughts?

Try Visitor Guard.  I know several Indians who have used it.
