Irina T asked:
Is there any medical insurance plan (international?) that would provide coverage for US medical expenses, in the case of a foreigner?

Comments on What medical insurance options are there for foreigners traveling in the US?
Yes, there is travel insurance. Call a travel agent when you book your trip and find out how to purchase it while you are still at home.
Check with "Traveler's Insurance Company," yes there is a real company with this name. I believe they offer medical policy to foreigners traveling in the US.
You'll need to buy it in your country of origin.
You DO NOT need to buy in your country of your origin. I have links on my site for many different travel medical plans.
Travel medical insurance is what you'd need.
