Do you have to have health insurance when entering the Peace Corps?

Youhou j asked:


Do you have to have health insurance BEFORE entering and if you take their insurance for the Peace Corps, when does coverage begin?
So when am I covered? Will I be covered as soon as I am accepted or as soon as I step foot onto foreign soil?
