Hello, everyone.

I am a 25-year-old American study-abroad student living in Italy. I am slowly in the transition of finding a job in Italy or the EU after graduation. I don’t plan on moving back to the USA anytime soon but maybe in the future.

The issue:

I will turn 26 and I will no longer be on my parents’ insurance. I will try to visit the US next year for family things but I want to at least have emergency insurance for the amount of time I am there. I tried applying on healthcare gov for the special enrollment period but only got suggested some very expensive premiums that I can’t afford. Does anyone have any suggestions?

    Travel insurance. That’s what I do every time I go back to the US for a week or two. Usually it’s 20-30€ per week and covers all your standard emergencies

        I usually just buy my bank’s travel insurance (ING - they supply it from Nationale Nederlanden). I saw Allianz gives you 50k medical coverage plus some other stuff for 67$ for two weeks
