Basic review of coverage GradCare is a medical insurance plan exclusively for Graduate Student
Instructors, Graduate Student Staff Assistants, Graduate Student Research Assistants, benefit-eligible fellowship holders and medical school students. GradCare is administered by Blue
Care Network.
The provider network in Ann Arbor includes: University Health Service,
University of Michigan Health System and participating community

There are no deductibles to meet before the plan begins to cover
expenses. Outpatient services (such as office visits, mental health,
chemical dependency, routine physical exams, routine pediatric exams,
routine immunizations, allergy testing and injections) are covered
with a co-pay. In-patient hospital services (such as admissions,
physician services and surgery) are covered in full for medically
necessary conditions.
Prescription drug coverage is provided under a separate plan through SXC. For more information, visit the
