Health insurance while on OPT.

[mano8057]

Hi,

I need to know what are some good health insurance options while on OPT?

How should the inquiries be done while getting the rates? Do we need to tell anything about our visa status?

Does that affact the insurance rate?

Thanks

Medical insurance rates are generally based on your medical history and medical insurance history. So, go right ahead and start your insurance shopping. There are many sites which do the comparisons for you. Just google for - medical insurance in <YourState> and you should have a lot of results.

OPT or any other visa ststus shouldn't have any impact on you medical insurance.

Doesn't your employer provide health insurance?

Why would you work for an employer who doesn't offer health insurance?
