The problem is that, for a foreign traveler to the US in her 70s, the maximum healthcare coverage is $100,000. In looking at several policies, including the link you, sent $100,000 seems to be the max.

She will stay with us for several months, and, AFAIK, she won't qualify for any governmental healthcare because she isn't a permanent resident here.

I am just worried that if, heaven forbid, some seriousness illness happens to her while in the US, $100,000 is not much coverage.
