Student Health Insurance Refund
Policy
All eligible
students are enrolled in the insurance program in the Fall of each year
or at the time of initial enrollment at ISU. Students must pay health
insurance along with their fees each semester. This amount is refundable
with upon signing an insurance refund petition. Refund requests must be
made at the Student Health Insurance Office (282-2972) located on the top
floor of the Student Health Center within the first 10 days of the semester.
Petitions for refunds may also be submitted in Idaho Falls and Twin Falls.
A student who refunds for the Fall semester is ineligible for coverage
in the Spring/Summer semester and will not be charged the premium for those
sessions.
The refund
petition must be submitted on or before the first 10 days of the semester.
If a student withdraws from school before the first 31 days of school,
the student is eligible to apply for an insurance refund. Other refunds
of premiums are allowed only upon entry into the armed forces.
All student
health insurance refunds are paid by the Student Health Insurance Carrier
and are mailed to address listed on the student health insurance refund
petition. If student has an outstanding ISU Fee Loan, the insurance premium
will be applied to the ISU Fee Loan rather than being sent to the student.
Payment of Refund to Student:
Refund
checks are not processed until four weeks after completion of refund petition
or until at least three weeks after the actual date of payment for the
semester.
Refund Appeals:
Contact
Student Health Insurance Coordinator for information on the student health
insurance appeals process. All student health insurance refund appeals
should be submitted in writing before the end of the semester for which
the student is appealing.
