Health Insurance - Policy and Enrollment

For WWAMI students having prior, additional coverage (spousal, partner, parental, etc.), the 木瓜直播 graduate benefit is an excess policy; it is always secondary and can help towards copays and deductibles. However, if the WWAMI student already has Medicaid or Tricare (Military Policy), the graduate policy becomes the primary benefit policy and Medicaid and Tricare are secondary benefit policies.

Before enrolling in our health insurance, be sure to review the Current Health Insurance Policy. To enroll complete the WWAMI/Graduate Health Insurance Enrollment Form. 

WWAMI students should select ONLY monthly or annual premiums.
