Remember to pay the student healthcare fee to Kela
All students who are entitled to Finnish Student Health Service (FSHS) services must pay a healthcare fee to Kela, the Social Insurance Institution of Finland. You must pay it for every academic term in which you are entitled for FSHS services. You are entitled to FSHS services for the terms in which you are enrolled as attending or non-attending if you are studying towards a bachelor’s or a master’s degree.
You must pay the Kela healthcare fee on your own initiative every term. The due date for Aalto University students is 30 September. See for instructions.
