Premium estimate uses indicative rates (Basic 4%, Standard 6%, Premium 8% of trip cost), adjusted for age, duration and the United States's cost-of-living index (100).
Ensure medical evacuation cover is ≥USD 100,000 (≥USD 250,000 for adventure activities).
Read the policy exclusions carefully — they often matter more than the headline coverage limits.

For the United States, expect travel insurance quotes in the 4–8% band of trip cost — this calculator turns that band into dollar figures for your itinerary. Whatever tier you pick for the United States, confirm medical evacuation home is included at USD 100,000 or more — that single clause matters more than the premium. No altitude complications for the United States: the numbers below are driven by the cost index (100, US = 100), duration and age.

| Premium | USD 250,000+ | USD 25,000+ | USD 3,000+ | ~8% |

Set the United States medical floor at USD 100,000 — private-care invoices around Washington, D.C. escalate quickly, and consulates do not negotiate them down. Medical evacuation home from the United States can cost USD 50,000–200,000 by air ambulance, which is why the ≥USD 100,000 line is standard advice.
United States riders are also the place to cover rental-sports equipment and cruise-connection misses — cheap add-ons for specific itineraries. Delay benefits on United States policies usually trigger at 6–12 hours and pay a fixed amount — enough for a hotel night, not for the missed tour.
United States Travel Insurance: The Exclusions Page
Stability requirements matter for the United States cover too: many insurers require pre-existing conditions to have been stable for 6–12 months before departure. United States claims adjusters deny incident reports involving intoxication without appeal — it is the most-cited exclusion in travel insurance generally. If your United States itinerary includes anything with a harness, a tank or a summit above 3,000 m, price the sports rider before comparing base premiums.
"Known events" — anything already in the news when you booked your United States trip — are excluded by name; buy insurance before the storm has a name. Mental-health treatment, ordinary dental work and pregnancy past 28 weeks sit outside standard United States coverage — read the schedule of benefits line by line.
Buying and Claiming for a United States Trip
Buy the United States policy the day you pay the first non-refundable deposit — that date unlocks the full cancellation clock and any pre-existing waiver. Compare the United States quotes on the deductible, not the premium: a $250 deductible at $151.80 a week can beat a $0 deductible at half again the price.
Before calling assistance in the United States, have your policy number, passport and location details ready — the hotline opens the file that authorises payment. If United States is one stop on a longer North America loop, a regional multi-country policy usually undercuts a stack of single-country certificates.
