How Can I Waive Student Health Insurance ?

INSTRUCTIONS TO COMPLETE THE STUDENT HEALTH INSURANCE PLAN ONLINE WAIVER

The Health Insurance Online Waiver is now active for the 2010-11 academic year.

If you have comparable coverage from another insurance company that will cover you for the entire 2010/2011 academic year, you are eligible to waive the mandatory Student Health Insurance program, and have the insurance charge removed from your Becker College student account. Please make note of the fall semester waiver deadline of October 1,2010 and the spring semester deadline of February 18,2011; requests to waive will not be accepted after this deadline date and the student is responsible for payment of the student insurance premium if the waiver is not received by the deadline.

Please follow these instructions to waive the student coverage on-line:

1. Visit www.universityhealthplans.com

2. Click on “Becker College”

3. Click on the box that says "Click here to Waive"

4. Fill in all the required information, including a valid email address – if a piece of required information is missing, your waiver will NOT be accepted.

5. Submit the waiver form. Shortly thereafter, you will receive a response via email indicating whether your waiver was accepted or not. If the waiver has not been accepted, fill it out again and resubmit. If it still has not been accepted, contact University Health Plans via email (click on icon at bottom of webpage), or at 1-800-437-6448, or (617) 472-5324.

All eligible students will be automatically enrolled in this plan unless they certify that they have comparable coverage by completing the waiver form. YOU MUST COMPLETE this waiver form by the applicable deadlines. Failure to complete this waiver by the deadline will result in your mandatory purchase of the College’s health plan, without the possibility of later waiver, refund or cancellation.
