美国的医疗保险.S. is very important as medical costs can add up quickly and be difficult to pay if not insured. To meet U.S. 国务院的指导方针和保护我们的国际学生, HSU requires all international students to purchase the HSU group policy through the International Medical Group (IMG). HSU will automatically enroll you in the HSU group plan with IMG each fall and spring semester and place an insurance charge on your student account. International students are welcome to have another 健康保险 policy in addition to the HSU group plan, but you must still purchase the HSU group plan to insure proper coverage the entire time you are enrolled at HSU.
