Kaiser Student Health Plan

 UPDATE- 2/8/2013

Open Enrollment is now closed. Students will not be able to make changes in their enrollment or waiver status until fall 2013.

If you have questions about your insurance, please email health@mills.edu and someone will get back to you as quickly as possible.

The Student Health Plan includes medical coverage provided by Kaiser Permanente and dental coverage through MetLife. All Mills students must be covered by health insurance that is equal to the coverage offered by the Student Health Plan (contact the Director of Wellness and Community Outreach to determine if your health insurance plan meets these criteria). Students who do not have other insurance can enroll in the plan during open enrollment periods at the Student Net site. Students wishing to enroll in the Student Health Plan due to a loss of coverage, may do so at any time by filling out the forms in the Cowell building.

All Mills students must log onto Student Net by August 31 each year to waive the Student Health Plan if they have comparable coverage. Student no longer have to re-enroll each year. Please see the specific instructions about Enrolling or Waiving the Student Health Plan for new students, continuing students or students returning from leave/abroad.

Students are not eligible for the Student Health Plan for semesters they are studying abroad or while taking a leave of absence. See the Mills catalog for more details.

There is no option to extend the Student Health Plan for students when they graduate. However, students may enroll in a conversion plan through Kaiser. To learn more about options beyond the Student Health Plan, please review Mills College Students Health Insurance After Graduation or contact the Director of Wellness and Community Outreach.
