Student Accident Insurance
The Student Accident Insurance Plan provides coverage for
on-campus or college-related injuries. This insurance covers most reasonable
charges. The student, however, is ultimately responsible for any medical
expenses incurred. Student Accident Insurance is co-insurance. Students covered
by a primary health organization or any other type of medical insurance should
first seek treatment and payment from the provider or insurance company. All
student claims are made through the Student Health Services office.
