The MIT Student Health Plan is available to all registered MIT students. The plan offers:

MIT Student Medical Plan: covers a wide range of services provided at MIT Medical, including primary care, many medical specialties, 24-hour urgent care, mental health care, and other services
Enrollment: Registered MIT students are automatically enrolled in the MIT Student Medical Plan as part of their tuition.

MIT Student Extended Insurance Plan: covers inpatient hospitalization, including the birth of a child, inpatient mental health and substance abuse treatment, surgical procedures, prescription drugs, and other benefits.
Enrollment: Since hospital coverage is mandatory under Massachusetts law, regular, registered MIT students, and special students taking more than 27 units are automatically enrolled in the MIT Student Extended Insurance Plan and billed for the cost. We will cancel coverage and remove any charges for students who submit a waiver request and show proof of insurance that meets Massachusetts requirements. More detailed information on Massachusetts requirements may be found on our Waiver FAQ page.

Online Waiver: To request a waiver, please follow the instructions for our online waiver process. If you are unable to use the online form, contact us at stuplan@med.mit.edu.

For fall term, waivers must be submitted no later than September 30. For spring term, waivers must be submitted no later than February 28. For summer term, waivers must be submitted no later than June 30. Please note that the Summer term waiving period is only for students registered for the summer term.

If you are not an MIT student you may not complete the waiver on behalf of a student, even if you have an MIT certificate. Each student must complete the online waiver using his or her own certificate.
