Health Insurance is Mandatory for J-1 Exchange Visitors and any J-2 Dependents that will accompany J-1 to the United States.

If you are in the J-1 Exchange Visitor Student Category  at Temple University, you will be eligible to enroll in health insurance through Classifications and Enrollment Process | Temple University Human Resources.

Temple University requires proof of insurance which meets the US Department of State criteria, including medical evacuation and repatriation, only from firms whose coverage has been verified as meeting the Department of State minima prior to the issuance of any Form DS-2019. Insurance purchase dates must match dates on invitation / appointment letter. Discuss your J-1 program dates with your Temple University department PRIOR to purchasing insurance. If dependents will arrive after the exchange visitor, insurance may be purchased for them closer to their arrival in the US.
