Overview of the Health Insurance Education Initiative

The Pat Walker Health Center and the Career Development Center partnered in Fall 2005 to begin offering a series of educational seminars on health insurance.

The "In-Sure Insurance" Seminar program is a result of the collaboration between the PWHC and CDC. Through this seminar, students learn about many aspects of the importance of health insurance and available options.

The topics include:

• Why you should have insurance

• Insurance while in college

• Insurance in the "real world"

• Learn basic definitions of insurance terms like pre-existing conditions, enrollment periods, underinsured, and more

• Learn overview of types of insurance (short-term, fee for service, HMO and PPO)

• and Resources to find information in the future
