  • Can a Hepatitis C+ve person travel to US on H1B VISA?

    Hi,

    I have an approved H1B and awaiting for the Visa approval. I was just diagnosed that I have a reactive Hepatitis C virus and doctor has advised a course of injections as treatment for next 6 months. But in the next couple of month I am expected to get Visa and fly to reach my employer in CA.
    Should I complete my medical treatment in my native place and then move to new destination or is there any provision that I can complete treatment in US?

    Please suggest.

    You can complete the treatment at either place, as far the visa rules are concerned.

    However, it is best to complete in India as the medical treatment in the U.S. is very expensive. If you are able to enroll into your employer's group insurance immediately and if they don't exclude pre-existing conditions and if there is no waiting period, then it is your choice.
