Student 健康 Plan (SHP)
In accordance with the State of Massachusetts “Student 健康 Program - SHP,” students enrolled in at least 75% of the full-time curriculum at any Massachusetts institution of higher education are required to participate in a school-sponsored qualifying SHP or an alternate health plan with comparable coverage. Students meeting this criterion are automatically billed for the SHP.
Student Blue Cross Blue Shield (BSBS) Plan Overview
马塞诸斯州大学波士顿 has partnered with Blue Cross Blue Shield of Massachusetts (BCBSMA) for the 2024-2025 academic year to provide health insurance coverage for students. All students billed for the plan must either "Confirm the enrollment" or "Waive with comparable coverage" via WISER. Non-action will result in enrollment by default.
资格
- Undergraduate Students: Enrolled in 9+ credits.
- 研究生: Enrolled in 7+ credits.
- International Students: All matriculating international students enrolled in 1+ credit hours are automatically enrolled in the SHP and cannot waive it unless covered by an embassy-sponsored plan, acceptable US-based insurance, or a Massachusetts Connector Plan covering medical evacuation and repatriation.
Undergraduate students enrolled in less than 9 credits may be able to purchase health insurance through 马塞诸斯州大学波士顿. 请电子邮件 bursar@tbc007.net for more information.
All students should inquire about their insurance eligibility by contacting the Bursar's Office.

How to Waive the Student 健康 Plan
Students are now able to waive the annual health insurance before being charged. Students can waive the student health insurance plan by submitting an online waiver on WISER, certifying alternative coverage.
注意: You cannot waive the Student 健康 保险 Plan if you are covered by:
- Mass 健康 Limited
- 健康安全网
- Children’s Medical 安全 Plan
健康 insurance should be waived prior to the bill due date to avoid paying for it. The final deadline to waive the health insurance is October 1st, 2024. Students who have not taken action by then will be automatically enrolled.
