Student Insurance Program Information
The Office of Student Affairs has asked that the following message about student insurance be shared with parents.
————————————–
Wake Forest University is pleased to continue offering a comprehensive student health insurance plan that includes no deductible in-network, no lifetime plan maximum, reasonable co-pays and unlimited prescription drug coverage.
Whether our students are in Winston-Salem, at home or studying abroad, they have the option to receive excellent health benefits compliant with the Affordable Care Act and standards endorsed by the American College Health Association through BlueCross BlueShield of North Carolina.
Our 2013-14 rates and benefit changes are available online. Those enrolled in the 2012-2013 student insurance plan will notice certain benefit and rate changes, including an increase in annual premiums.
Historically, Wake Forest students have enjoyed rates lower than competitive plans, and we have done everything within our power to keep coverage as affordable as possible. Plan changes are not unique to Wake Forest, although our 2013-2014 rates remain comparable to other college and university offerings. However, they were necessary to keep pace with rising health care costs nationally and to deliver the quality of health insurance many students rely upon.
Additional information about our student insurance plan, including benefits, rates, deadlines and FAQ, are available online.
If you have any questions, please contact Caitlin Burchette, Associate Director of Student Affairs, at burcheac@wfu.edu or (336) 758-4247.
