My MIL is traveling from India to US for 6 months. I did a quick analysis of the insurance plans available in India for her and they dont seem to be adequate. Most of them have a deductible of USD 400 or above and the providers here are mostly unknown.

Any suggestions of whom to look for either in India or in US?

Thanks in advance for your time.

My parents are travelling to USA in feb, 2008. I just want to know whether travel insurance is mandatory for international travellers coming to USA on family visits?
If yes, may i have some insurance plans from reputable companies (at lower cost) which have good customer reviews?

I heard that “Travelers Liberty” plan is quite cheap and good for short trip, but don’t know about the reputation and claim settlement efficiency of the company who is offering this plan.
