Caribbean national health insurance

[radsalltheway]

Can anyone tell me a bit more about this health insurance company? I heard you can buy it once youre on the island.

Also, whats the voltage down there? do i need to bring converters or can we get them there?

Not sure about the insurance, but i think all North american appliances are compatible there (110v)

Hi all,

Through MUA you can get a special health insurance policy while you are a student, follow this link:

There are links to pricing shown and how to sign up if you so desire.

The island is 220 volt electric, like the UK. However almost all rental apartments/houses and the entire school campus is 120 volt standard US/canada outlets. So no you do not need adapters or converters. Small appliances in 120v are available in most stores, like fans, irons etc.
