We have a special provision to give Medicare cover to the spouse and unmarried dependent children of a postgraduate student.

• The Medicare premium for the entire period is payable in advance at the time of admission itself. If a student gets married and has a baby, the premium needs to be paid within one month from the date of marriage/child birth.
• Application for granting family cover will not be entertained any time after admission or after the expiry of one month from the date of marriage or child birth, whichever is later. Subsequent enrolment may be approved at the sole discretion of the University. In such cases, coverage will begin after one month from the date of payment.
