Health insurance is an absolute necessity for students, yet a surprising number of students, both studying medicine and other fields, rely on their university's student health care clinic rather than paying for insurance. Often, the medical plan a parent has through work will cover children up until they're between 20 and 24 years old, whether they live at home or away at school. However, because college health plans at some schools are subsidized by tuition , college plans might save parents money. If you don't have any health insurance for the student, college health plans could be a good solution.
