Choose the right USA Health Cover for you
Congratulations! You have made a great decision to live and study in United States of America. The next step is to ensure that when you arrive you have adequate health cover when you need it most. IDP are here to assist you to make the choice.
Why do you need Health Cover when in the USA?
Health care systems are different all over the world. The health care system in the USA is mostly privately funded. This means healthcare costs are the responsibility of the individual, regardless of whether you have health insurance or are a USA resident or a visitor.
It is well documented that healthcare costs for a major accident or illness in the USA can be very expensive. Because of these high costs, most Americans purchase health insurance to reduce their medical costs significantly.
It is also a requirement for international students to have appropriate health insurance coverage. In addition, you will have the peace of mind knowing you are covered from the moment you land in the USA.
