Need health insurance? Get it, or pay the fine!


Need health insurance? Representatives and insurance navigators from the Maryland Health Connection will be on campus on Wed. Feb. 26th from 9am-4pm in the Harbor Multipurpose Room to enroll students into a health insurance plan that best fits their budget and lifestyle.

By law, under the Affordable Care Act, most people over the age of 18 must have health insurance beginning in 2014 or pay a fine. If you are under your parent's insurance, or have Medicaid or Medicare coverage, that meets the requirements. The deadline to enroll without being charged a fine is March 31st, 2014.

The open enrollment sessions will take place in the Harbor Hall Multipurpose Room. Students should plan to meet with an enrollment representative for 30-45 minutes and should have all required documentation with them (see myUMBC Documents).
