According to federal regulation 22 C.F.R section 62.14 governing
the Exchange Visitor Program, it is required that all exchange
visitors and dependents must have health/accident insurance
coverage, which includes repatriation costs for remains and
medical evacuation coverage during their stay in the United
States. Under these regulations, VCU is not required to pay
for the insurance coverage, but must ensure that the visitor
and all accompanying dependents have coverage that is valid
in the United States. If you need suggestions for insurance
companies or have any questions, please call Immigration Services
at (804) 828-0595.
