International Student Health Insurance 2009-2010

The plan is administered by Aetna Student Health. All information on rates, plan benefits, claim procedures and exclusions are stated in the International Student Health Insurance Plan brochure.

The information contained herein is intended to provide an overview of the Indiana University Student Health Insurance Plan. Students should not use this information in making decisions pertaining to health insurance coverage.


Eligibility

Participation in the Student Health Insurance Plan is mandatory for Indiana University International Students, unless proof of comparable coverage is presented, and a waiver is filed by the waiver deadline. In the absence of a waiver, your portion of the insurance premium will be automatically assessed on your account with the Bursar. Visiting Scholars are eligible for this plan and should contact International Services for information regarding enrollment.

All International students taking credit hours, visiting scholars and all English language students are required to participate in this Insurance Plan unless proof of comparable coverage is furnished to the University. Students must be enrolled at Indiana University for at least the first 31 days after the date for which coverage is purchased. Home study, correspondence, and television courses do not fulfill the eligibility requirements. If and whenever Aetna Student Health discovers the eligibility requirements have not been met, its only obligation is refund of premium; less any claims paid.

Annual and Spring coverage periods include insurance coverage for the summer.

Eligible students may also insure their dependents. Eligible dependents are the spouse/same-sex domestic partner (residing with the Insured student) and unmarried children under the age of 24.
