2005-2006 UH-Endorsed Insurance Plans

The University of Hawaii has selected HMSA (Hawaii Medical Service Association, Blue Cross-Blue Shield of Hawaii) once again to provide student health insurance coverage for UH students for the 2005-2006 academic year. In early August, HMSA sent out postcards with web site and enrollment information to all Fall 2005 registered students. You may also check the HMSA special UH portal for University of Hawaii students at the HMSA University Student web site. Take advantage of these specially designed plans for students!

Important!!! Check web site for deadlines to enroll!

HMSA is offering two options for students:

  1. A Comprehensive Plan that consists of medical, drug and vision coverage; and
  2. A Basic Plan that consists of medical coverage only.

We are pleased that students have two excellent options for health insurance, and we strongly urge you to make sure you are covered so an accident or illness will not cause you financial hardship. International students are required to purchase health insurance coverage and must provide proof of enrollment in a health insurance plan to the HCC Records Office.
