Health Insurance

The UTDT requires that all of its exchange and free mover students submit proof of having a comprehensive medical insurance valid in Argentina. This must be valid from the date of initial entry into the country until the last day of exams at UTDT. Without this document it is not possible to register at the University.

The deadline for submitting the proof of a medical coverage that meets all of the requirements detailed below will be 6pm on Friday, June 28. To submit the file, please follow the instructions available at the bottom of this page.

The health coverage must include all of the following items, as well as medical emergency services in the countries bordering Argentina:

  • Medical diagnosis and treatment;
  • Preventive medicine;
  • Hospitalization and surgery;
  • Mental health treatment (sessions with therapists, medication, and hospitalization);
  • First aid and transportation to a hospital or clinic;
  • Treatment of chronic diseases;
  • Paramedic services;
  • Medical evacuation; and,
  • Repatriation of mortal remains.

The University suggests the coverage provided by William Hope, as their company offers all of the above-mentioned services without deductibles or co-payments. It also includes dental care, discounts on medicines, orthopedic devices and visual aids. The cost per semester is USD 468. 

To further learn about these services, see the QR at the bottom of this page and please contact Fernanda Sandez at fernanda_sandez@whope.com.ar should you have any questions about them.
