The UnitedHealthcare Student Health Insurance Plan plan does not automatically cover the cost of eye or dental care. We suggest you visit your eye doctor and dentist before you leave for 海角论坛. You can purchase supplemental eye and/or dental insurance as optional coverage directly with UHC after you've been enrolled in your medical insurance plan.
