College Health Insurance Student

Valerie Said:

What's the best type of health insurance for the college student? Out of state?

We Answered:

Being that you are a college student, do your parents have a plan that you are eligible under?

Besides that, you cant get much health insurance for $700/year these days. Even catastrophic care with huge deductibles are more then that.

Health Insurance Question for College Student?

We Answered:

Depends.

The Health Care amendment Pres. Obama signed into law hasn't yet gone into effect. However, once it does so (and some companies are starting it now) you should be on your parent's policy until age 26

So... check with your parent's insurance person before dropping full-time status.

Marc Said:

Most Comprehensive Health Insurance for a College Student?

We Answered:

You need to look at each university's website to see what they offer.

Most offers PPO plans, which lets you see anyone (in the network).

Dental plan is usually an option.

No plans cover everything--if one exists, it will not be affordable. They're there to make profit, after all. This means no plans cover all prescriptions.
