Voluntary Health Plan
UGA students who are not required to have health insurance may purchase
the voluntary plan if they are (a) enrolled in six (6) or more semester
hours or (b) participating in Cooperative Education Programs.
The voluntary plan is an accident and sickness insurance policy that includes
diagnosis and/or treatment of illness, injury, or medical conditions. Benefits
include physician, hospital, surgical, pharmacy, behavioral health services
(mental health / substance abuse), as well as legally mandated benefits.
