Additional Information
Each year Wake Forest University School of Medicine (WFUSM) engages in a comprehensive benefits review and premium negotiation process for the Student Health Insurance Plan. The primary goal is to provide students with a cost-effective health insurance program with quality benefits. After much review and analysis, the plan will move to a new carrier, Aetna, for the 2023-2024 policy year.
The new plan will include the following benefit changes:
- Lab/X-ray benefit - the $30 per service copayment will no longer apply. Lab/x-ray services will be subject to the plan's deductible and co-insurance.
- Urgent Care - the $75 copay will no longer apply. Urgent care services will be subject to the plan's deductible and co-insurance.
- The out-of-pocket maximum will increase to $9,100 in-in-network and $18,200 out-of-network.
- The plan will include an adult vision exam.
Policy Documents are still subject to the NC department of insurance review.
