There is a new state mandate that advises that all students need to have health insurance and schools need to provide them with this information. Our nursing department has offered Medi-Cal/Covered CA. enrollment assistance to our students for many years before the law was implemented.
We are requesting that we work hand and hand to ensure that our students have access to health care. Last year, we received over 3,000 referrals from nurses, health techs and staff members. Our goal this year is to enroll more students and their families into a health care plan.
Throughout the year:
If a student/family needs health insurance, provide them a copy of the Health Insurance Outreach Referral form (below and also on the Nursing website), and have them go to the nurses office to be referred.
