STUDENTS GOING ABROAD
For students studying or traveling abroad, the Student Accident and Sickness Plan provides worldwide travel assistance to you or your covered dependents through through On Call International, the 24-hour worldwide assistance service.
When studying or traveling abroad, keep your identification card with you and take a copy of the brochure for reference. When outside of the United States, you will likely be asked to pay for your medical care first and then will need to seek reimbursement. Covered Expenses will be reimbursed on a Non-Network basis. When you submit claims for reimbursement, you will need to have the itemized bill(s) translated into English and include a letter informing the claims administrator that you are seeking reimbursement for charges previously paid. Please insure that your name, ID number, address (to receive your reimbursement check), and the College's name are on the bill.

Covered Expenses include expenses for transportation, medical services and medical supplies necessarily incurred in connection with Emergency Medical Evacuation of the Insured Person. Emergency Medical Evacuation must be approved in advance by the Company.
