Dear UH Student,
As you get ready for the upcoming semester, healthcare is probably the last thing on your mind, but many times the unexpected happens and if you get sick or get hurt. You'll feel better knowing you have a health plan to take care of you.
The University of Hawai’i encourages you to think about your health insurance needs. Lack of adequate insurance coverage http://www.hmsa.com/portal/?gid=student may be financially devastating in the event of a major illness or accident. Medical costs can be a burden even in the case of a minor illness.
