Health Insurance for College Students
Summary:
When preparing your college-bound child, securing a reliable health insurance plan should be a top priority. Many parents might not realize, but their existing health plans often cover children aged 20 to 24 if they meet certain criteria, such as being financially dependent and enrolled as full-time students.
Understanding Coverage Options:
If your current health plan doesn’t extend to your child, most colleges offer health insurance options. Sometimes, coverage is mandatory, adding to tuition costs. If no other options are available, the additional expense may be necessary to ensure your child is covered.
Comparing Plans:
Whether you're adding your child to your existing plan or considering college-provided insurance, comparison is key. Look at costs, deductibles, copays, and included services like x-rays, lab work, and dental care. Consider whether the plan covers incidents during spring breaks or holidays, as these are times when students often require medical attention.
Budget and Coverage:
Select a plan within your budget that sufficiently covers your college student. For part-time students, plans may differ in cost and benefits, so it's crucial to evaluate all available options.
Resources and Financial Aid:
The American College Student Association (ACSA) is a valuable resource offering discounts and information tailored for college students. They also endorse student loan programs to help cover health insurance costs. Financial aid based on academic performance and need can ease the expenses of long-term health insurance.
There are solutions for students without parental coverage, those needing temporary insurance, graduate students, married students, and even international students who require visa-compliant coverage. With numerous resources and assistance programs, obtaining necessary health insurance for college students is manageable.
