This year we are sending students this message rather than a mailing to inform you of the health insurance offered to students at Northwestern Michigan College. As you may know, Health Care Reform has created great changes in the insurance industry in the past couple of years.

Student health insurance is undergoing those changes as well. The policy now covers you for what is called “essential services” which includes preventive care and routine care. The plan has changed and we encourage you to review it to see if the policy will meet your needs.

You can view the policy at www.sas-mn.com – under COLLEGE click on FIND MY SCHOOL and follow the link to Northwestern Michigan College. You can view the new policy under “2014-2015 brochure”.

You may call Candy Mears or Ryan Desch at 800-328-2739 to ask any questions regarding the policy.
