What if your child already has coverage?
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.
