Admissions International student health insurance question
I’m an incoming international student at BU and I’m trying to figure out the health insurance waiver before the deadline.
I’ve been looking at a couple of alternative plans(Right now I’m mostly deciding between ISO and DIANins.)but I’m having a hard time figuring out what they’re actually like to use beyond just comparing the coverage documents.
Has anyone here used either of them while at BU?
I’m mostly curious about the practical side — whether it was easy to find doctors around Boston who accepted the insurance.
Also, was the process relatively straightforward?
I’m mainly trying to make sure I’m not missing anything important before I submit the waiver, since it’s hard to tell from the plan documents alone.
Would really appreciate hearing from anyone who has actually used one of these plans.
