7 Health Insurance for Students Even Healthy Students may need healthcare services while at College. Student Health Centers provide many primary care services at no charge, but they are not equipped to provide imaging, or diagnostic laboratory services and are not open evening hours or weekends. Students needing x-ray, an ER visit, blood work, or a weekend visit to an urgent care center, will not have access to these services without insurance or incurring a significant bill. A single hospitalization can cost thousands of dollars.

8 Health Insurance for Students Having Insurance means having access to the medical care needed in a way that minimized disruption to your child’s studies, life and finances. While Mercyhurst University currently requires insurance for Athletes and International Students, it strongly encourages ALL students to carry adequate health insurance. Any Mercyhurst student not currently required to show proof of insurance, are still welcome to purchase either Highmark Community Blue PPO Platinum or Silver.

9 Rules for Enrollment Mercyhurst University requires all student Athletes and all International Undergraduates to have certain minimum health care requirements in order to attend classes. If a student is currently covered by either their parent’s or a spouse’s employer-sponsored group plan, they may opt-out of Mercyhurst’s sponsored plan if it meets the requirements set forth by the University. Individual Policies & Travel Polices are not accepted.

10 Rules for Enrollment (con’t) Mercyhurst University strongly recommends all students obtain and maintain health insurance while they are earning their degree. Mercyhurst offers 2 different Health Insurance options (one low-deductible, one high-deductible) for non-Athlete domestic and international students, regardless of the number of course credits they are enrolled in. Athletes may only enroll in the low-deductible plan.

11 Rules for Enrollment (con’t) Athletes All Athletes must enter their current insurance for review on the ATS Portal by July 15th. Instructions will be sent to all athletes by their coaches. Students will be contacted if their coverage is not sufficient. International Athletes will be billed for the ‘Platinum’ plan on their tuition bill. If it is found that their current coverage meets Mercyhurst’s requirements, the charge will be removed.

12 Rules for Enrollment (con’t) International Students All international students will be billed for the ‘Silver’ Plan on their tuition bill. In order to have the charge removed, students must submit their current coverage for approval. Students will be notified by email if their coverage is accepted or why it was denied. International Students are able to ‘upgrade’ their coverage to the ‘Platinum’ plan. The difference in cost will be billed to their student account.

13 Rules for Enrollment (con’t) All Other Students Mercyhurst University strongly recommends all students obtain and maintain health insurance while they are earning their degree. Students who are neither athletes or internationals, may enroll in either plan on a voluntary basis. Parents are encouraged to call their current health insurance provider, to ensure their student has access to more than emergency only coverage, while studying at the University, and to review the costs/benefits in comparison to their current coverage.
