Where they're the same

  • Neither plan treats COVID as an exclusion; it's covered up to the standard medical limit on both.
  • Both Seven Corners and Visitors Coverage keep a round-the-clock claims line, not just business hours.
  • Both are true comprehensive plans — they pay actual hospital bills, not capped per-day or per-procedure amounts.
Watch out: RoundTrip Choice

Reimbursement-only (no direct billing); medical cap is lower than dedicated visitor plans.

Watch out: Visitors Protect

Coinsurance applies on first $5,000 — out-of-pocket can sting on a single ER visit.
