person Hi,
I am going to the US to seek my Masters Degree on August.Thank you for contacting us at American Visitor Insurance for your Students health insurance needs! Congratulations on your Master’s Degree work! The plans we offer do not cover any maintenance medication or treatment. I'm afraid that you will have to pay for that out of pocket. However, prices can vary widely by pharmacy and there are "discount cards" that are free that also change the prices significantly. I would check, for example, the Walmart pharmacy. They are famous for having many routine medications available for $40 per month. You may have to be sure a generic is OK, but that might be a good route for you. Certainly our plans will help you should you become ill or injured, but you will have to figure out how to get your insulin and doctor visits for the diabetes taken care of.A great student plan is:

person Hi,
I wanted to touch base with you to possibly get an insurance quote for our international students for next year. I will have approximately 30-35 to cover. I don't need a premium plan...if we could get a quote on a middle of the road plan...that has a co-pay for office visits (I am thinking it would be less expensive)... They are all on an F1 Visa.We have several group plans we could go with. The one I have in mind for you is called Patriot Exchange and I like it because there is a $100 deductible payable per injury/sickness and no other charge. It will cost about $57 per student per month for a $250,000 maximum policy (this includes full coverage for injuries sustained doing HS sports). The other group plans all have a deductible and after that a coinsurance payment of 20% usually of the next $5000. Here are links to the policy I am recommending for you. (Note that the "add-on" includes coverage for high school sports, so I included that in the price) To get a free quote and/or buy Patriot Exchange insurance:
Patriot Exchange Student InsuranceThe suggested plan has a waiting period of 12 months for coverage of pre-existing conditions.
Please see the provider network at the below link where you can find the providers near your area by giving your zipcode:
local_hospital Provider Network
Payment for the claims is totally dependent on the providers. Generally if you go to a provider within the network they might do direct billing. If not, you will have to make the payment in advance and get it reimbursed by sending the scanned bill receipts to the insurance company.
There are no coverage available for wellness in this plan. If you need this, there is another plan below:

Student travel insurance covers specific needs and risks of US students traveling or studying abroad. It provides coverage for medical expenses, trip cancellation, loss of baggage, personal liability, any sporting activity and more while outside the USA. When US students are traveling abroad, either in a group or alone, be it for a short trip, or for longer stays of a semester abroad, it is important to have the best student insurance from the US since healthcare is different outside the US and this US student health insurance can provide access to the best healthcare available. Having good student travel insurance will also help US students with trip cancellation insurance or any trip interruption expenses given the likely disruptions in international travel while outside the United States. US students may also want to look for additional features such as cancel for any reason (CFAR) travel insurance which allows you to cancel your trip for any reason and get a partial refund of your trip cost.
