Dependent Coverage
Students who have dependents who will reside with them in the US may elect to enroll dependents in their own insurance.
LewerMark provides coverage options for F2 and J2 dependents on a voluntary enrollment basis.
If you elect to purchase dependent insurance, you will pay fees directly to LewerMark.
Optional Coverage Options - Not included in the UWF Lewer Mark Plan for International Students
The UWF LewerMark International Insurance Plan meets and exceeds the Florida Board of Governors Requirements for international student insurance.
The plan does not include coverage for dental or vision expenses. These coverages are not included in US health insurance plans. LewerMark offers options for students who want to add this coverage in addition to health insurance.
Fees for Dental and Vision insurance are paid directly to LewerMark.
