Scope, flexibility and choice
Currently serving more than 70 institutions, the EIIA Student Insurance Program provides a variety of accident and health plans for traditional and non-traditional students including seminarians, domestic and international students, and student athletes.
Deductibles are the choice of each member institution. Each customized plan provides benefits in excess of any other insurance available to the student, or, in the absence of underlying insurance, it serves as primary coverage.
The Student Insurance Program includes:
- Student Accident and Health Plans - The Student Program offers customized plan designs ranging from an Intercollegiate Sports Plan to a comprehensive medical plan for Seminary Students. Students are given the option to buy increased limits if this is their only source of coverage. Premiums not used to pay claims go toward future premium credits for your institution.
- International Student Plan - The EIIA International Student Plan exceeds the plan requirements mandated by the United States Information Agency (USIA) for J1 Visa students and scholars. In addition to the comprehensive accident and health coverage, it provides excellent travel assistance services through Scholastic Emergency Services.
- Seminary Student Plan - EIIA offers a hard waiver comprehensive plan for seminary students and their dependents. The plan was developed with input from seminary students and is available at a very competitive rate.
- Intramural/Club Sports Athletic Accident Plans - The EIIA Student Program offers a catastrophic plan for intramural and club sports with coverage limits ranging from $3 million to $5 million. This plan has a $25,000 deductible that may be satisfied by the basic accident coverage provided through the club association or the institution.
- Summer Sports Camp Coverage - Although most students are gone for the summer, campuses continue to provide educational opportunities to non-traditional and prospective students during the break. EIIA also offers medical accident coverage for summer camps and special groups that come on campus.
- Global Emergency Assistance Services - Emergency assistance coverage provides an array of emergency medical and personal assistance services, including access to doctors, hospitals and pharmacies whenever an eligible participant is traveling 100-plus miles from their permanent or campus address or to another country. In addition to pre-trip information, students are provided unlimited coverage for medical evacuation and repatriation without limitations for pre-existing conditions or suicide.
