Student Health Insurance

The Student health insurance plans provide individual health coverage for graduate and undergraduate students enrolled with a minimum of 9 credits at a college or university in the United States. The Student Health plans offered by eHealthInsurance provide an attractive alternative to the sometimes poor coverage offered through the school, or the more expensive Individual and Family health insurance market. The plans available through eHealthInsurance allow members to obtain coverage from doctors and other healthcare providers of their choice, cover students even when school is not in session, and are renewable on an annual basis.

Health insurance is an absolute necessity for students, yet a surprising number of students, both studying medicine and other fields, rely on their university's student health care clinic rather than paying for insurance. Often, the medical plan a parent has through work will cover children up until they're between 20 and 24 years old, whether they live at home or away at school. However, because college health plans at some schools are subsidized by tuition , college plans might save parents money. If you don't have any health insurance for the student, college health plans could be a good solution.

People often buy a college's health insurance, even when the student is covered under another plan, because of the problem of obtaining referrals across states. (Many HMOs require referrals for visits to out-of-network providers.) Parents who want their children to get prompt care without calling home for a physician's referral might want to consider college health plans.
