Despite being a little sleep-deprived today, I find that its hard to hide my enthusiasm for a major product update that our team completed Wednesday night. These upgrades provide a better product for all students who are expanding their culture by studying in a foreign country.

I'm sure you don't share my enthusiasm for insurance products (its okay - few people do), but trust me when I tell you: this is BIG. This year, the team at Travel Insurance Services took the time to evaluate what international students needed - both those coming to the United States to study, and those studying abroad from the United States. What we found was is that there was great room for improvement in the level of coverage that students need. In working through long discussions and marathon strategy sessions, we are now able to deliver the new Study USA-HealthCare product.

So what's changed about the new student insurance package? Listed below are some of the highlights:

• Student Athletics Coverage
  End up with a sports injury? Not a problem - Study USA-HealthCare offers medical coverage for injury due to Intercollegiate, Intramural, Interscholastic, or club sports up to $5,000.
• Student Wellness Benefit
  To make sure you stay healthy, Study USA-HealthCare now offers coverage for one routine physical exam per certificate year. If you plan on studying abroad for multiple years, that's one visit every year you renew your coverage!
• Physical Therapy and Chiropratic Care
  Everybody does something silly at one time or another which requires physical therapy or chiropractic care - like re-enacting the final moments of Wrestlemania VII where "Macho King" Randy Savage delivered the flying elbow to defeat Ultimate Warrior.  When prescribed by your doctor or physician, Study USA-HealthCare provides up to $50 per day for physical therapy or chiropractic treatment.
• Flexible Payment Options
  You can still pay for Study USA-HealthCare all at once, or over the course of your student year in convenient monthly payments! Just apply online, and our website does the math for you.
• Still at a Great Value
  For all the benefits offered, Study USA-HealthCare still comes at a competitive price. Lower than many healthcare plans offered by schools, rates begin as low as $2.07 per day. And Study USA-HealthCare is renewable for up to four years.

We're proud to offer one of the best values in international student insurance across the spectrum. You can learn more about Study USA-HealthCare by visiting our website- or you can get a quote by clicking here.
