Health and Travel Insurance
Types of Insurance
International Student Identity Card
A few JMU study abroad programs provide an International Student Identity Card for their students. It is important to note that the insurance included with the ISIC card is the minimum coverage recommended for traveling abroad.
 |
ISIC Card Member Benefits: $300,000 Emergency Evacuation; $25,000 Repatriation of Remains; $25,000 Accident Medical Expense (Includes $500 Emergency Dental Coverage); $5,000 Accidental Death & Dismemberment - Air; $1,000 Accidental Death & Dismemberment - All Other; $500 Lost Document Replacement (includes your ISIC card); $165 per day Sickness/Hospital Benefit (up to 61 days); $100 Baggage Delay; $100 Travel Delay; Free - Travel Guard Assistance |
Health Insurance
Effective summer 2009,
student enrolled in JMU study abroad programs will be covered by a medical insurance policy administered by Cultural Insurance Services International (CISI) for the period of time that they are participating in the JMU program. This is basic health coverage of up to $100,000 and covers medical evacuation. More information concerning the insurance plan will be distributed with your orientation materials. Insurance cards will be distributed by your program directors. Cancelling your current US policy is not advised. Disruption of coverage could cause problems when reinstating.

Trip Cancellation Insurance
In addition, students are strongly encouraged to purchase
travel and trip cancellation insurance that would provide
monetary support for non-refundable expenses and service charges
imposed by public carriers and travel suppliers, including baggage
loss or delay. JMU does not represent or act as an agent for, and
cannot control the acts or omissions of, any host institution, host
family, transportation carrier, hotel, tour organizer or other provider
of goods or services involved in the program. In the event of a voluntary withdrawal, JMU may be unable to refund student fees; however, students may make claim for unrecoverable expenses through a travel insurance provider.
List of Providers
This alphabetical list of insurance providers is
compiled as a resource. JMU does not endorse any of the insurance
companies or their services with the exception of CISI for health insurance for study abroad program participants.
