Johnson University requires all full-time undergraduate students taking courses on campus to carry health insurance.
Students will be automatically enrolled in the University’s health insurance plan unless they provide proof of coverage. Students will be required to either complete an online health insurance waiver form, providing their current health insurance provider, or enroll with the University’s student health insurance provider for the current academic year. Both the waiver form and the enrollment form are available on the student portal.
Students who enroll in student health insurance for the fall term pay for a 12-month policy that begins the first day of class. Students who begin in the spring term pay a reduced amount due to the reduced length of the policy.
The health insurance provided through Johnson includes unlimited major medical coverage after a $250 annual in-network/$600 annual out-of-network deductible. Most claims involve an 80/20% coinsurance for in-network providers and 50/50% coinsurance for out-of-network providers. There is a $25.00 co-pay per office visit.
Policy effective dates for the 2026-2027 academic school year:
| 2026 Fall Term | 08/01/2026 – 07/31/2027 |
| 2027 Spring Term | 01/01/2027 – 07/31/2027 |
| 2027 Summer Term | 05/01/2027 – 07/31/2027 |
Complete coverage information for the United Healthcare Gold Plan is available on United Healthcare Student Resources.
The student health insurance rates for 2026-2027 are:
| Participant(s) | Annual Rates | Spring Rates | Summer Rates |
|---|---|---|---|
| Student Only | $2,406 | $1,397 | $606 |
| Spouse | $2,306 | $1,339 | $581 |
| One Child | $2,306 | $1,339 | $581 |
| Two or More Children | $4,612 | $2,678 | $1,162 |
| Spouse + Two or More Children | $6,918 | $4,017 | $1,743 |
Note: To determine the premium for a student with spouse, student with spouse and children, or student with children,
simply add the above rates together. For example, if a student wants insurance for himself and his spouse, then the
premium will equal the student rate plus the spouse rate. If both spouses are students, then the student rate applies to
both.
Please note: Rates are subject to regulatory approval and may change.
Insurance premiums are determined by the carrier and may increase from one year to the next.
