Q: I am interested in getting American Health Shield insurance for myself. I live in Arizona, but will be vacationing in NY for 6 weeks - what happens if I need a doctor or hospital while in NY? Will this plan still cover me?

A: Yes, American Health Shield available at www.MedSave.com covers treatment by any doctor or hospital in the U.S. This works to your advantage because health insurance purchased in AZ is priced at a fraction of the cost of coverage purchased in NY.
