Choice America FAQs

ChoiceAmerica is travel medical insurance for non-U.S. citizens traveling to the United States, Mexico, or Canada. To qualify for coverage you must not be a citizen of the host country you are traveling to, which are the United States, Mexico, or Canada. ChoiceAmerica is not available to those whose applications list a U.S state address as the mailing address.

Pre-existing conditions are usually not covered in travel insurance policies. The ChoiceAmerica plan offers limited coverage for pre-existing conditions, only if you choose optional coverage for pre-existing conditions. This can be purchased with additional premium. The policy has to be purchased for a minimum of 30 days.
If you choose the optional pre-existing condition rider, after an additional deductible of $50 per incident, the plan will pay for the following:

1) Physician visit: $150 per visit, 3 visits maximum.
2) Lab & x-ray: $1,000.
3) Emergency room & hospitalization: $1,500.
4) Prescription: $100
For more information on the optional rider, please check the description of coverage. ChoiceAmerica Pre-existing Rider

The ChoiceAmerica plan is a limited coverage plan and pays its benefits according to a fixed schedule of benefits. This plan is less expensive than comprehensive plans because the plan provides only basic coverage and has limited or restricted benefits.
