Dear AOSA Member:

As a health care professional, you are well aware of the rising cost of health insurance and the increasing number of students without any health care coverage. Don't jeopardize your financial future by going without health insurance! Evaluate this plan and others, and choose the best coverage for you and your family.

Sincerely,
Jennifer Sidun
AOSA President
