I am going to France through a study abroad program through my college. In order to apply for a visa, I need a letter from my medical insurance company stating that I will be covered in France, but I think it would be faster to get coverage through an international travel insurer. I’m racing against the clock. I’m searching on the web, but I have no idea what I’m doing really. . What companies are most reputable?

My Wife and I are going to France for about a week and I was wondering from where can I get medical insurance for my trip. The French consulate says that we should be insured for atleast $40,000.
