How Do I Get Healthcare When I Get to the U.S? 

Unforeseen accidents and illnesses can strike unexpectedly, underscoring the vital importance of being well-prepared for such eventualities. Securing healthcare insurance immediately upon your arrival in the United States is an imperative step, as the U.S. does not provide free access to healthcare services. It is essential not to leave a single day without coverage.

While Bluedata does not extend health coverage to students, international students have a range of options to consider:

  • New York State of Health Marketplace: You can explore various healthcare choices through the New York State of Health marketplace website. The platform will guide you through a step-by-step process, requiring you to input the necessary information. To utilize the website for enrolling in healthcare, you must first create a My NY account. Based on your details, you'll receive a list of available healthcare options for your selection. Should you require assistance, there are Navigators available to help you with the enrollment process. ​​

In conclusion, safeguarding your health through insurance is a paramount consideration for international students in the United States, especially at institutions like Bluedata. ISO (International Student Organization) and ISI (International Student Insurance) offer tailored plans to meet your specific needs, ensuring you have access to quality healthcare. Your health is a priority, so take proactive steps to ensure you're covered and prepared for any unforeseen circumstances.
