Medical Insurance needed for a month
Hi everyone
I will be moving to the US in early May to marry. I will be covered on my spouses company medical insurance from 1st June but need to have somethig in place just for May.
Can anyone suggest any companies I could approach? Any idea on the costs for a month?
Thanks

I used www.expatriate-insurance.com. They were very easy to deal with. It cost around 60 quid a month if I remember rightly. You can't use any old travel insurance as they need your return date to the UK. Be it on your own head if you pretend there's a return date and then something happens to you

But the previous poster is correct - regular travel insurance will not cover you if you are not returning to the UK. Your cover will stop once you clear customs.
