Student Health Insurance Overview
All eligible students are required to have and maintain health insurance coverage while enrolled at HSC. Eligible students are automatically enrolled in the university Student Health Insurance policy with the option to opt out with verification of comparable coverage. Comparable coverage must meet the minimum standards as outlined by the federal government’s Affordable Care act, in addition to providing inpatient, outpatient and prescription drug coverage.
Degree seeking domestic students enrolled in the College of Biomedical and Translational Sciences (excluding MedSci online students) and College of Public Health are exempt from the insurance requirement and can enroll on a voluntary basis as long as credit hours do not exceed 50% online.
