Health Insurance  

The Johns Hopkins University requires that all students have health insurance in order to protect against unexpected accidents or illnesses.

 

The Johns Hopkins University offers a Student Health Plan to all students. Those students who choose not to purchase this plan must provide proof of health coverage comparable to the university's health insurance plan to the Office of the Registrar at the time of registration.

 

If you belong to an HMO, PPO, or other managed care health plan, please be sure to let your Student Health and Wellness provider know this information before being referred out of the clinic for services such as lab work, x-rays, or specialty consultations.

 

If you have the Johns Hopkins University Student Health Insurance Plan, you must present your health insurance card in order to receive medications, vaccinations, or medical supplies.
