Hi @Gogo21, thank you for coming to the community about this. The community is UK based so I am unsure about the insurance in America. I can look this up and get back to you if you would like?

Hi @Gogo21, sounds like an exciting trip!
I'm not sure of this myself, but there do appear to be some discussions on Tripadvisor's Travelling with Disability forum that may be worth looking into/getting involved with, as they may be able to provide more targeted assistance. Hope this helps!
