Health Insurance Waiver

CampusCare Student Health Insurance Program

The University of Illinois at Chicago requires that all students be covered by health insurance and provides a plan for which the fee is automatically assessed along with other tuition and fees. Eligible students include all registered degree and non-degree Undergraduate, Graduate, and Health Professional students. There is no enrollment form to complete.

Waiving
Students with comparable health insurance coverage, for example through a legal guardian or an employer, can waive out of the program by submitting the online Waiver Form by Monday, June 1.  (Student who have applied or registered after June 1 should contact the Summer Session Office for assistance.) You will be asked to provide your University Identification Number (UIN), which will appear on your Notice of Admission letter as your Applicant ID, and information about your insurance company. Once approved, a waiver remains in effect until a Reinstatement Application Form is submitted. All forms must be submitted through the CampusCare website.

Coverage Dates
Student Health Insurance coverage begins on Monday, May 18, 2009 for students who register for any summer courses before Monday, June 1, 2009.  If you register for courses after June 1, 2009 your coverage will begin on the date you register. In order to avoid problems with access to coverage, the CampusCare office advises you to register for courses before May 18. Coverage will end for all enrolled summer students on Saturday, August 15, 2009.

Fees
The Student Health Insurance fee is one of several fees that appear on your E-bill. The rate for the 2009 Summer Session will be $264. Note: Fees are subject to change prior to the start of the term. Also note that the Student Health Insurance Fee is different from the Student Health Services Fee, which is a mandatory fee that cannot be waived. For more information about the services covered by the Student Health Services Fee, go to the Department of Family Medicine website.
