FIU Health Insurance
Do you need insurance coverage but aren't sure where to start? Enrolling in the FIU Student Health Insurance Plan can save you money by giving you the Student Health Advantage! Not only do you get an affordable, comprehensive health insurance plan insured through UnitedHealthcare StudentResources, but if you come to Student Health Clinics at either MMC or BBC for services, we waive your deductible and copays! Also, our plans offer an unlimited policy year maximum and low annual deductibles when you use it outside of the FIU Student Health Clinics.
