SUMMER STUDY : SWEDEN : MEDICAL CARE & INSURANCE
REQUIREMENT
As a condition of enrollment, each student is required to have current health insurance.
Please fill out and return the Health and Accident Insurance Certification (HAINS)
form, which is included with the 2008 Application Form. If you do not have insurance,
or if your health insurance does not provide adequate coverage, a supplement policy
may be available at a nominal cost through your law school insurance program.
Please note there is still a fee for doctor's visits, usually a co-payment of approximately
US$120. Visits must be paid upfront and then a reimbursement claim can be filed with
your insurance company in the United States.
Another insurance option is to purchase the International
Student Identity Card, which costs approximately $25 and is available from the
STA Travel Agency.
