Even a single emergency room visit in the US can cost USD 5,000–20,000 without insurance. Here is a quick USA travel insurance from India price overview by plan tier for a 25-year-old traveller:

The cheapest travel insurance for USA from India is the Silver Plan - the most affordable visitor insurance from India to USA available through TATA AIG. For a 30-day trip at age 25, the Silver Plan costs just ₹2,530 in total - less than a single outpatient visit at a US urgent care clinic. However, given the extreme cost of US healthcare, most advisors recommend the Gold Plan or above for adequate financial protection.
If your company is moving you to the United States on an L1 visa - whether as an executive, manager, or specialist - you are stepping into among the most expensive healthcare systems in the world, often without the employer-sponsored insurance that US citizens take for granted. That gap is where L1 visa insurance comes in.
An L1 visa is issued to employees of multinational companies who are being transferred to a US office or affiliate. It comes in two forms: the L1A for managers and executives, and the L1B for employees with specialized knowledge. The visa can be valid for up to three years initially and is extendable - meaning your time in the US (and your exposure to US medical bills) can stretch well beyond a single year.
While travel insurance is not technically mandatory for L1 visa applicants, the financial risk of going uninsured in the US is enormous. A single emergency room visit can cost anywhere between $1,500 and $30,000. A week-long hospitalization can run into hundreds of thousands of dollars. Travel insurance from a trusted Indian insurer like TATA AIG bridges this gap - paid in Indian Rupees, covering you in US Dollars.
L1 visa holders who arrive in the US before their employer's group health plan kicks in - typically after a 30 to 90-day waiting period - are particularly vulnerable during that initial period. TATA AIG travel insurance can cover this gap seamlessly.
| 30 Days (₹) | 90 Days (₹) | 180 Days (₹) |
|---|---|---|
| 2,096 | 5,600 | 10,200 |
| 2,800 | 7,500 | 13,800 |
| 3,900 | 10,500 | 19,200 |
| 5,500 | 14,800 | 27,000 |
| 7,800 | 21,000 | 38,500 |
