Health Certificate & Medical Insurance

According to HSE University Internal Regulations, all international students arriving in Russia must present an original health certificate and obtain a medical insurance policy valid for their entire stay in the country before moving into a dormitory or residential complex.

Voluntary medical insurance is a type of personal insurance that allows policyholders to receive qualified medical assistance at healthcare facilities in the Russian Federation.

How can international students acquire medical insurance?  

International students can obtain a medical insurance policy from an insurance company recommended by HSE University or  from a provider in their country of residence. For more information on recommended policies and the acquisition process, please visit the Office of Staff and Student Benefits website.
