IPE Student Health Insurance 101 Workshop Pilot

New bridge activity option for IPE program requirements
Idea brought forth by ASG. Executed by Campus Life director,
Cheri Warmack, assistant director, Nakia Dedner and the
Associated Student Government (ASG) recently teamed with
Kathryn Neill, Pharm.D., director administrative and curricular
affairs in the Office of Interprofessional Education, to create an
Interprofessional Education (IPE) Student Health Insurance
Exposure Bridge activity.
All UAMS Students are required to have health insurance
coverage. However, many students are covered by a parental
policy up to age 26. The ASG felt it was important for students to
know and understand how health insurance worked, from both the
patient perspective and the physician side. By creating an IPE
Exposure Bridge activity, students in all UAMS colleges and
programs will have access to learn how to work through probable
patient scenarios as well as receive IPE credit. This activity also
allows students to recognize the interest of patients, understand
decisions that drive policy selection, and how to communicate
effectively as a professional.
