Dear Students, Parents and Guardians:
In an effort to provide the best possible health care to our
students, Belmont Abbey College is making available a
Blanket Accident and Supplemental Sickness Indemnity
Policy for its students. Please take a few minutes to review the following information.
All full-time day-program students attending Belmont Abbey College are automatically enrolled in the Accident
and Supplemental Sickness Indemnity plan. To be exempt from this coverage and fee, you are required to
show proof of other medical insurance. The waiver
form must be completed online at the following link:
http://1stagency.com/forms/waiver_belmontabbey.php
no later than September 21, 2013 (February 14, 2014
for Spring Term enrollees).If the waiver is not received
by those dates, the fee will remain on your bill. The cost
for students entering the Fall Term is $363.00, for the
Spring Term $254.00.
If your personal insurance is an HMO. We urge you
to seriously consider enrolling in the school-sponsored
plan. Many HMO’s will only pay for treatment outside their
network area when it is an emergency and will not pay
for treatment from doctors out of their area without prior
permission, sometimes not even then.
This Plan protects insured students on and off campus, at
home or while traveling. This Plan is primary to any other
insurance the student may carry.
Sincerely,
The Business Office
Belmont Abbey College
