This website includes information on how to upload the required documentation, along with FAQs and contact information for the JHU Third Party Payer team.

Do I need to have major health insurance?

Yes, health insurance is a requirement for all full time registered domestic and international students. Full-time domestic and international students are automatically enrolled in the university’s student health insurance plan with Consolidated Health Plans CHP. Domestic students have the option to waive out,  international students are required to purchase the Johns Hopkins University health insurance plan through CHP.

Must I purchase the University sponsored student health insurance?

The cost for the University’s student health insurance is posted along with  tuition and fees in your student account. If you do not have comparable health insurance coverage the insurance charge will remain on your student account and you are responsible to pay the cost of the University’s sponsored health insurance plan with CHP. If you have comparable health insurance, you must complete a waiver online using SIS  before the deadline, the waiver will remove the health insurance charges. Otherwise, if you fail to waive out before the posted deadline date, the health insurance charge will remain on your account and you will be responsible for payment.  All students enrolled in part-time programs who are taking 12 or more credit hours, non-resident graduate students, and graduate study abroad students are eligible to enroll in the Student Health Insurance Plan. Details of the University’s sponsored health insurance plan can be found here.  Full and part-time international students are required to purchase the Johns Hopkins University sponsored health insurance plan.

If I access financial aid or overpay, will I be issued a refund?

Student refunds are processed through BankMobile through your SIS account. Once your refund preference is selected through SIS your funds will be sent from JHU to BankMobile to disburse the refund according to your selection.
