Medical Insurance:
Health insurance is provided by a private Israeli insurance company. Coverage for the medical/hospitalization plan is mandatory and for a full academic year only. Students who stay for the summer must extend their policies at their own expense. Doctors are available in close proximity to the campus, as well as a short drive away in one of Jerusalem's reputable medical centers.
Please note: The Yeshiva requires that every student maintain his local country’s medical coverage in the event that a student must return home for further medical treatment. Students are encouraged to consult with their local physicians regarding inoculations required/recommended for a year’s stay in Israel (Hepatitis A/B, Tetanus, etc.).
