College-Sponsored Plan too "Bare-Bones"

Situation:
Jack is heading off to college in the Fall. His school is requiring that he have some type of health insurance prior to the start of school. Since he will be out of the PPO network region of his parent's health plan, Jack's parents want to make sure he has adequate health coverage. They did some research and found that the college plan is too "bare bones". It had a very low maximum benefit with a lot of other limits.

Solution:
Jack's situation is ideal for Student Select. It was designed specifically for students who need greater coverage at an affordable rate while attending college. The Student Select plan offers a choice of deductibles, and because it is not an HMO or PPO plan, Jack can pick the doctor or hospital he wishes to visit. The plan allows for up to $1 million protection for eligible expenses, including in-hospital and outpatient services, emergency care and surgery.


Going to College Outside HMO or PPO Network

Situation:
Julie will be attending school out of state. Unfortunately, the PPO plan she has through her parents does not cover her fully outside of the service area. Her parents are concerned because they know that even a minor illness could put all of them at serious financial risk.

Solution:
Restrictions for coverage outside the PPO health plan may leave Julie with inadequate protection. However, she can rest easy because Student Select may be just the solution she is looking for. Student Select a permanent, individual health plan that is not an HMO or PPO. This means Julie will be protected in the event of an illness or accident and can pick the doctor or hospital of her choice.

She needs a plan that can better fit her budget because she definitely can't afford to go without coverage.

Solution:
In many cases, Student Select costs less that a traditional individual medical plan. It was designed specifically for students who need quality coverage at an affordable rate while attending college. The Student Select plan offers a choice of deductibles, and because it is not an HMO or PPO plan, Amy can pick the doctor or hospital she wishes to visit.
