Insurance
The mandatory health fee, which supports the Health & Wellness Center programs, also provides for College Accident Insurance* coverage should a student be injured during a supervised on-campus or school-related activity. Report all accidents and injuries to the health office. Insurance forms and brochure are available at the health office. When filing the college accident insurance, you also need to fill out the District Injury Illness/Accident Report.

Covered California: Covered California is a free service that connects Californians with brand-name health insurance under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act. It’s the only place where you can get financial help when you buy health insurance from well-known companies. That means when you apply, you may qualify for a discount on a health plan through Covered California, or get health insurance through the state’s Medi-Cal program. Either way, you’ll have great health coverage. For more information, please visit Covered California.
