Visitor Insurance for Venezuelans Visiting the USA
Venezuela's IVSS has no US coverage. For Venezuelans and their families in America, visitor insurance is essential financial protection.
⚠️ Venezuela has one of the largest diaspora populations in the USA — visiting family members need proper US health coverage from Day 1.
Venezuela's IVSS Has Zero Coverage in the United States
Venezuela's Instituto Venezolano de los Seguros Sociales (IVSS) and the public hospital network provide domestic coverage only — neither offers any reimbursement for US medical care. Venezuela and the United States have no bilateral healthcare agreement. A US ER visit averages $3,100; one hospital night averages $11,700. Venezuelan nationals visiting family in Florida, Texas, and New York carry full financial exposure: a single hospitalisation in the US can exceed $45,000 in out-of-pocket charges with no IVSS reimbursement.
Pre-Existing Conditions — What's Covered for Venezuelans?
US visitors insurance uses "acute onset" coverage — emergency treatment for a sudden flare of a known condition is typically covered.
| Condition | Acute Onset Covered? | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Type 2 Diabetes | ✓ Yes | Acute onset emergency covered under IMG & WorldTrips |
| Hypertension / High Blood Pressure | ✓ Yes | Sudden cardiac event or stroke covered as acute onset |
| Coronary Artery Disease | ✓ Yes | Emergency heart attack treatment covered — not routine cardiology visits |
| COPD / Asthma | ✓ Yes | Acute attack requiring ER care typically covered |
| Arthritis | ✗ Limited | Routine care not covered; acute fracture unrelated to arthritis is covered |
| Kidney Disease (CKD) | ✗ Limited | Dialysis is excluded; acute infection or emergency is covered |
Acute onset means emergency treatment for a sudden flare of a known condition — not routine management. Questions? Call (832) 856-1704.
