Petersen International Underwriters

Petersen International Underwriters holds licenses across all 50 U.S. states and Canada, offering international major medical plans built explicitly for non-U.S. citizens visiting or relocating to America. The company designs plans around the reality that U.S. healthcare costs far exceed those in most other developed countries, with medical benefit maximums ranging from $1 million to $5 million. Plans include worldwide coverage for emergency travel back home if needed, plus coverage while in transit between countries.

This insurer appeals to international visitors planning extended stays or potential relocation who need genuine major medical protection rather than brief trip coverage. The multi-state licensing and focus on international clients means the company understands non-citizen documentation requirements and visa implications, reducing administrative friction when filing claims.
