Senior Visitor Insurance FAQ — San Francisco
Does my home country health insurance cover me in San Francisco?
No. Your home country health insurance or national health coverage does not extend to medical care in the United States, including San Francisco, California. The US has no universal healthcare system and no reciprocal health agreements with foreign countries. International seniors visiting San Francisco are fully responsible for 100% of any medical costs — which can reach $4,300 for a single ER visit.
What hospitals are near San Francisco for seniors?
San Francisco is served by UCSF Medical Center, Zuckerberg San Francisco General, St. Mary's Medical Center. These are among the area's leading medical facilities. However, as an international senior visitor, you will be billed at full uninsured private rates — meaning a hospital stay can easily cost $3,000–$10,000 per day. Visitor insurance ensures you're not faced with these bills alone.
