If you’re a domestic student, during your studies at UBC, you must have basic health insurance, such as the BC Medical Services Plan (MSP) or health coverage under another provincial or territorial basic health plan.
The basic health insurance covers doctor visits, hospital visits, and medical tests. Your health coverage runs for as long as you remain enrolled and eligible for MSP or your home province or territory health plan.
As of January 2020, BC residents are no longer charged for BC MSP.
