Q: My son is going to United States for pursuing further studies. Should he take health insurance policy from India? Or should he take health insurance at the place where he is going to study in US?

A:A regular health insurance policy taken in India will mostly give you benefits in India only. You could though look up Health First ME policy of New India Assurance Co. Ltd. What you should buy for your son is international students health insurance policy and buy it from India only. Abroad such a policy is very expensive and may have high amounts of deductibles or copays.
