I am traveling to the US on a J-1 visa. My university provides medical insurance, but no emergency evacuation or repatriation, both of which are mandatory for the J-1. Where can I buy these two separately, i.e. without any health insurance?

This isn't an expats question - J1 is a non-immigrant short-term visa. Moving to travel.

There are insurers that offer coverage for medical evacuation and repatriation, and many designed for J visa holders. Here are the results of a Google search on 'J1 medical evacuation and repatriation insurance:'
Visitor Guard
J1 Visa Insurance
Envisage International Student Insurance
American Visitor Insurance
Cigna
DIANins Global
Allianz
Before buying separately, you might contact the insurer(s) available through the university. It may have such coverage and be able to add to your policy, and possibly for less than paying for independent coverage.
