How much does it cost?
For students starting in September, the total cost of the Plan for coverage from Sept. 1, 2018 – Aug. 31, 2019. is $283.70 ($136.50 for health coverage and $147.20 for dental coverage).
How do I opt out?
If you are covered by another extended health and/or dental plan (e.g. a parent’s or spouse’s employee plan), you can combine both plans to maximize your overall coverage and reduce or eliminate out-of-pocket costs. Alternatively, you can opt out of the health portion, the dental portion, or the Plan in its entirety during the Change-of-Coverage Period from Sept. 4 – 21, 2018 and receive a credit to your student account for the amount of the Plan.
