You can apply for medicaid.
Unlikely. Remember that a LPR has a sponsor who is responsible for making sure the person doesn't become a public charge.
Medicare isn't available until 5yrs after a person becomes an LPR, and then it is really expensive because the person won't have made the required number of contributions.
Medicaid is a little different, in as much as its generally a state-run program. There is still however a 5yr waiting period between gaining LPR status and commencement of eligibility.

no insurance is going to cover a pre-existing condition.
INDNET Does offer some coverage for pre-existing conditions. But the coverage is minimal and deductible is huge. Given that, i think it is prohibitively expensive.

Not in most states until they have been LPRs for specific period of time and the HOUSEHOLD meets income and asset requirements.

Health insurance options for older new LPRs is very limited and very, very expensive. Read the forum on this as it has been discussed ad nauseum.

Hi,
Which visitor medical insurance is good for visiting parents ?
They are planing to stay here for 6 months.
I did few web comparisons and no insurance is providing coverage for pre-existing conditions.
Thanks,
If you are unwilling to pay any expenses that result, they should not visit.
