Student Insurance Additional Benefits

As a participant in William & Mary's Student Health Insurance Plan, students also receive the following value-added benefits, services and programs.

Accidental Death and Dismemberment Benefits

Students have coverage in the event that an injury results in the accidental loss of life or a member. The insured person or beneficiary may request the Insurance Company to pay the applicable amount. For specific information about the benefits offered, view the titled section in the Plan Brochure.

Telehealth Medical & Behavioral

Included with your Student Insurance Plan and provided by HealthiestYou, is 24/7/365 access to board-certified physicians online or by phone (where permitted). Students have access to medical care for minor stuff (like allergies, pink eye or earaches) without leaving the comfort of your home AND there is no copayment or consultation fee for this telehealth service so you can save time and money.  See the toll-free phone # on your UHCSR Insurance ID card or look in your MyAccount web portal to access services.

Student Assistance Plan

Because college just isn't easy, included with your student insurance plan is the Student Assistance Plan.  StudentAssist master's level specialists are there to help you deal with everything from missing your loved ones to helping you review your lease. Call any time, any day to talk to us about anything and everything--it's all totally confidential! You can call if you need support in the moment, a lawyer's advice or referral, answers to financial questions, to work something out in mediation or for concierge type services like travel or nightlife resources or pet sitting referrals.  StudentAssist also has an online self-help portal including webinars, worksheets, mindful tools, online courses, videos, articles and more.  The toll-free phone number is in your UHCSR MyAccount under My Benefits-Additional Benefits.
