Medical Insurance

Also called, "health insurance," this is a system where money paid in small increments each month to an insurance provider accumulates and is used to help reduce the cost of medical treatment when it becomes necessary. Some schools provide their students with insurance while others do not. Students should definitely be covered by an insurance plan, regardless of who is the insurance provider. It is best to research and find the most affordable insurance provider for you.
