<p>Greeting U Chic parents</p>
<p>My son will be a freshman , counting down the days till he gets to U chic.
I was wondering about health care ? He has child care plus in New York which dioes not carry over to Chicago . Does anyone know of a plan that is more affordable than what the school offers?</p>
<p>Thanks very much

<p>I have done the comparison for over two years, I have yet to come up a less costly program, so I still buy the UofC insurance. I know that a lot of complaints about the high cost of the school insurance, but comparing apples to apples, the UofC insurance is still the lowest cost. You have to look at from all points of view, the fine points are:</p>
<ol>
<li>International Coverage.</li>
<li>Deductibles</li>
<li>Available of local primary care</li>
</ol>
<p>Of course, if the parents have the insurance to cover your kids, you can fill out the waiver.</p>
