INSURANCE COVERAGE FOR UMP INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS
All International Students are required to have Hospital & Surgical Insurance with Extended Personal Accident and Term Life Benefits, furthermore insurance coverage policy is one of the mandatory documents required for applying a student pass. Unexpected illness and accidents can happen to anyone and at any time. With the insurance policy coverage, you will be given a Health care card for cashless admission into panel hospitals. It can help to ease the student’s mind in the event of serious medical emergencies. Your insurance coverage is for one year from the date of purchased and it is subjected to be renewed annually. Students are responsible for the renewal to ensure a continual coverage.
