I am from Philippines and will be going to Poland soon. I will be using a Zaproszenie or an official invitation letter since my travel will be sponsored by my boyfriend who is a Polish. However, will my boyfriend needs to pay my health insurance in Poland? I would also like to ask on what would be the qualifications as a host person of a traveler and the documents he need to submit in Poland for him to qualify as my sponsor? Thank you very much.

Can I use my insurance, Harvard Pilgrium Health Care, for the hospital birth in Sweden?
My organization paid good salary with health insurance, travel allowance, education allowance, Severance pay (Thai laws). But they don’t have 401K or retirement plan. Therefore, if I do not save money I will not have any saving.
Currently, I open to Thai bank account–Standard Charter Thai and Siam Commercial Bank. I used them on my daily activities–paying bills etc.
Can you please suggest financial plan? What kind of program I can enroll to save about 10-20% of income each month without me using them to buy "nice-to-have" staff lol?
I came home form work the last Thursday and Friday to a full answering machine with messages for a person named Julian Sweet (I don’t know who that is and his name is nowhere near my name). "Julian" apparently was online early Thursday and made MANY online requests for various services – home based businesses, auto/home/health insurance, travel packages, etc. and left my phone number in the request. We’re talking hundreds of requests. In the last three days I have had over 90 phone calls from different businesses seeking "Julian." Today I started receiving mail for "Julian". One of the items was for a new home owner’s insurance policy quote – and based upon the details in the proposal, this person knew my address, the year the home was built, a correct value, when the wiring was last checked… the whole nine yards.
Aside from being irritating and annoying, should I be worried about this? A friend of mine said that there are people who can with "one click" enter my information online and it is sent to hundreds of companies and it will look like I want their services. Is this true? And does anyone know how to make this stop, aside from changing my phone number and moving?
Thanks for your help…
I have lived at this address and had this phone number for ten years. I tried to think if there was anyone I had angered recently but I am drawing a blank. I don’t really have "enemies"… it’s crazy.
I don’t understand why people say public health care couldn’t work in the USA. They work in almost every other developed country and some are even considered superior.
I’m British who’s fiancée is an American currently working as a nurse in the USA. I am neither Republican nor Democrat and it really won’t affect me whether America has a public system or not I’ll still need travel insurance.
It really seems bizarre to me that a country that can put a man on the moon can’t or won’t take care of its citizens. What is stopping it happening? Is it purely the public objection, too powerful insurance companies or simply impossible to complete?
Jimmy J – As I noted in the question I have no intrest in whether USA has a Public system or not as it won’t effect me. My fiancee works as a nurse in the USA so I do have an Interest.
Ruiner – most of the leading and largest pharmaceutical and research companies are based in countries with public health care systems, ever heard of GlaxoSmithKline or AstraZeneca. Only 2 of the top 5 pharmaceutical companies are American and 3 of the top 8. I do like the fact that you choose Laser eye Surgery as an example since it was developed in Holland a country with a public health care system.
Sorry the idea of laser eye surgery was from Holland it was first performed in Germany and then Greece. Both of which have public health care systems
1. What is travel health insurance?
2. Do I have it automatically if I’m under Aetna??
3. If not, how do I get it?
I’m a US citizen, currently living in Japan on a religious activities visa. I’m going home to the US for Christmas for two weeks. In America I have no health insurance. Right now I’m covered under the national health insurance here in Japan, but that doesn’t cover me while I’m traveling abroad. What is the best thing to do about travel insurance?
All the travelers insurance sites I’ve visited ask for my country of residence, which is technically still the US. So, I can’t buy travelers insurance from the US to the US… can I? Or should I say that my country of residence is Japan?
Also, where is the best place to purchase travelers insurance from?
I do have some friends who probably know, and I’m going to ask them. But I thought I’d see what people have to say on here as well.
Thanks for your help!

I have a bf in NZ who wants me to move out there. And although he makes it most of the time sounds like living in NZ is too good to be true, I want to know the real facts like your public health system. I have a very good health insurance here, everything I want and need is easily accesible, prices of everyday basic needs are reasonably affordable. I’m pretty much stable here with a home and vehicles I’ve worked for. MY bf has been here but keeps going back because simply he is home sick. I need advice pretty much from someone who can tell me what NZ is really like.

I am married w/ 2 kids
I am a citizen of Russia (lived here all my life). I was visiting my brother on vacation last year in USA and had a seizure and small stroke so I had to stay in the hospital for a few days. They did a MRI, Cat scan and other things to see what’s going on. I am 60 and have a history of strokes, high blood pressure, diabetes so before I went on vacation, I purchased in Rusia health travel insurance for K. My hospital bill in Houston was K so I thought there will be no problem.
Last week ago, I received in Russia the hospital bill for K because insurance didn’t want to pay because of "preexisting condition". My question is what can happen to me? I am very, very worried. My salary here in Rusia is about K a year so it’s normal that I can’t pay K hospital bill. My brother in USA says nothing can happen but I am really worried. I can’t believe anybody will just leave me alone for this much money. Can you please help in any way; what can they do to me? Thank you so much!
Big insurance companies and pharmaceutical companies spend billions of dollars buying the favors, actions and votes of congressmen and Senators to see they get what they want. The Health Care bill will dramatically reduce the influence from these companies. The "Public Option" will give U.S citizens a fair and affordable opportunity to get reasonable insurance and better health care. If the insurance companies and pharmaceutical companies have their ability to influence and bride our national government leaders will they not shift their efforts to states that Opt Out of the public option? Will opting out not set the states up for graft, corruption and bribes of state law makers? Won’t the citizens of those states opting out suffer or will they be able to travel to other states where they can take benefit of the new Health Care regulations? It appears to me that the only benefit of states opting out of the public option would be to allow the states to negotiate with the insurance and pharmaceutical companies!
I pay child support. But the mother who has the custody doesn’t work, she lives with her parents. She doesn’t have plans to work. Now, child support pays for basic needs, but the law says that for special expenses (vacations, travel tickets, health/dental insurance, private school, college, university) parents must share the expenses according to their incomes. But her income is 0, so I must pay 100%. I’ve been paying 100% of those expenses cause I love my child, but I feel this is not fair. Also I live in Canada and the mother in the caribbean, so I spent a lot of money each month to visit my child. The mother’s parent help with the basic needs but they don’t want to pay for this "special expenses". Is this ok? When we set up the agreement for child support, the court ordered an X amount for child support, but I agreed to pay twice Xto ensure the baby would have a good quality of life.
Yes, works fine, I have talk with 100s who say it’s great. It is a bold face lie they come to the USA for health care, they don’t. Of the 100s I have talked with most don’t own a car or travel. The Nurse I talk with everyday tells me Doctors there also think it’s working fine. The Neocons like to point to malpractice insurance as the reason for high cost’s it’s not. That’s just another lie. 1/10 of one percent is insurance.
Neocons want to get million for their Dad who died but they don’t want you to get a dime when yours dies as a direct result of negligence.
It does work well for the poor. According to the poor i talk with. Yes they tell me long lines are common. I pay my Doctor for a office visit and wait 1 hour many times. It’s no biggy when your sick.
We spend 0 billion on defense and we only spend 14 percent of outlays on Social programs. 3000 died on Sept. 11th. that’s 1/10 of one percent who will die this year because of no health insurance in America.
I NEED TO HAVE HEALTH INSURANCE IN THE USA, TO COVER PREGANANCY.
I CAN SUBSCRIPE EITHER BEFORE MY TRAVEL OR AFTER ARRIVAL TO USA
I have 2 "gap" quarters coming up at school, Winter and Spring term, where I won’t be taking any courses. I will start again in the Fall next year.
The gap is a real headache…but I want to make the most of it and travel.
When I drop below full time I will lose my health insurance and travel benefits though…
Any recommendations for a study abroad program that counts as college credit?
First choice is Spanish language immersion type course
1) Stop providing non-emergency health services to all illegals.
a) if a life threatening emergency, absolutely do everything to save life
b) if not a life threatening emergency, immediately offer full one way transportation to their country of origin and to the nearest hospital. Fully paid for by the US taxpayers. Including the guardians travel expenses as well.
2) Immediate tort reform. Much of the cost of medical bills is because the doctors have to pay such huge insurance bills
just these 2 would make health care significantly more affordable, right?
