College comes with plenty of decisions. Health insurance doesn’t have to be one of them. Learn how Student Blue℠ helps you focus on your child’s education, not their coverage.
Your child's college or university selected Student Blue health insurance from Blue Cross and Blue Shield of North Carolina (Blue Cross NC). Backed by more than 90 years of experience, Blue Cross NC delivers quality, affordable coverage built specifically for college life.
24/7 coverage at home, at school, and around the world – with access to doctors and hospitals across the U.S. and more than 200 countries worldwide1.
Access to health and wellness tools designed specifically for college students, including resources that make it easier to get care, manage coverage, and stay healthy.
Seamless coordination with on-campus student health centers, plus easy access to in-network providers near campus.
Reliable, comprehensive coverage protects against surprise medical expenses, so one illness or injury doesn’t turn into a financial setback.
Even if your child is insured now, their plan may not work as well once they’re on campus, especially if they're from out of state. Before you decide, consider this:
- Care near campus, even the student health center, may be out of network.
- Out-of-network care can include higher costs and more paperwork.
- Student Blue may offer better in-network access at a lower premium.
Taking a few minutes to compare plans now could save you money, and stress, later.
