Health insurance for F1 students?

Hi everyone! I’m an F1 student and I have epilepsy, I would like some health insurance. My epilepsy isn’t really serious, but I would like to be able to get the medicine here instead of having my parents send it to me with my aunt because it’s late sometimes and then I have a seizure. Last time someone called an ambulance and I woke up and asked to leave immediately. They wanted to do blood tests but I refused and kept asking to leave. They sent my parents a bill of 3600$ which is crazy. Then I had to go to an urgent care and pay another 250 to see a doctor(which may or not prescribe me the medicine) so I just want to be safe. I’m 24 by the end of the month. What prices am I looking at per month? What is good? I called some companies and they said they don’t do it for F1 students. The one that did said it was 500$ / month- is this an average rate?

Also if you could recommend companies I could call that would be great google keeps sending me to unsecure sites.

Thank you sorry for rambling I’m really tired Thank you! 🙂
