Health Insurance for Foreign Nationals

Health Insurance for Foreign Nationals

Foreign Nationals Without UWM Employee Health Insurance

UW System Student Health Insurance Plan (SHIP)

UW-Milwaukee works with Anthem Student Advantage (ASA) to contract for health insurance for international students and scholars. Participation in the UW-Milwaukee group health insurance policy through ASA is required for all UW-Milwaukee registered international students and is available to scholars, international faculty and staff and visiting international high school students, holding non-immigrant visas. The only exception to this is if a foreign national has a position within UWM that qualifies for full time employee health insurance.

The ASA health insurance plan provides continuous protection, 24 hours a day, anywhere in the world during the period of coverage for which the proper premium has been paid. To learn more about the group health insurance policy, please visit the Center for International Education International Student and Scholar Services website below, and click on the tab on the left that says “Health Insurance, Medical Records & Vaccine.”
