Guest p0stman Posted April 4, 2011 Report Share Posted April 4, 2011 Besides my car insurance I am really not well informed about the myriad of other insurance options I can sign up for as a medical student (i.e. disability insurance and whatnot), as well as the different companies that offer them. I was just wondering if you guys can point me in the right direction in deciding which types of insurance I should consider getting and which companies to go with. Thanks!

AKY Posted April 5, 2011 Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 I hope you don't mind if I add to your thread, but I need home insurance for my apartment lease, so I was hoping a student might be able to comment on that as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NLengr Posted April 5, 2011 Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 Try to group the car and the tenants insurance together with the same company. Save a bit of cash. OMA offers $100,000 in life insurance (for free?) during med. school without a medical. Your LOC is probably insured by the bank separately, but the OMA one would let your family cover funeral expenses etc. when you die. OMA also offers disability. I think you can ask for $1500 or $2500 a month. Both are very cheap. Good to have IMO. They will come talk to your class in first year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
