Health Plan Topic of the Week: Do you know your UWSA Health Plan number?

Your UWSA Health Plan number is also known as your Green Shield Identification number and part of it includes your student number.

Your number is UWS followed by your student number-00. The two zeros after the dash tells Green Shield that you are the primary plan member. If your spouse has been added to the plan, they will have the same identification number but it will end in –01. Children will be –02, -03, etc, starting with the oldest child.

Example: UWS(student number)00

You will need your Green Shield Identification number when you submit a claim form.
