Single Student Enrollment

Eligible students will activate their coverage by completing the Student Health Insurance Requirement under their Task list in Catalyst by selecting Activate/Opt-In. If students charged do not activate or successfully waive, they will automatically be have their coverage activated at the end of the enrollment/waiver period.

Please see the Steps to Activate Student Health Insurance (PDF) for detailed instructions to opt-in.

Students who have waived the student health insurance, but need to enroll instead can do so before the end of the enrollment period by filing a Qualifying Life Event enrollment form.

Graduate Students, Opting into Coverage

Graduate students who enroll in less than 6 credit hours are eligible to request coverage, but will not be charged automatically. Students must be matriculated and taking at least 1 credit hour towards their degree.  Students on dissertation in the fall taking 1 credit hour are eligible for spring coverage.

Students must complete the Student Health Insurance Requirement under their Task List by selecting 'Activate/Opt-In'.  By doing so coverage will be activated and the charge added to the account within 7 business days.

 

Family Plan Enrollment

Students who wish to enroll in family coverage must do so at the beginning of their enrollment for the fiscal year, unless a qualifying event occurs.  Students must complete and return the Family Plan Enrollment request.

Continuation Coverage

Students can enroll in the continuation plan through United Healthcare for up to 90 days after losing coverage.  Coverage must be requested within 30 days of the loss.

Please Note: You will no longer be a student under the continuation plan, so you cannot receive care at the UHS clinic. You must find an in-network provider, which means you will be charged the in-network rate.

To enroll in the continuation plan for extended coverage, please complete the continuation enrollment form by:

  1. Logging into MyAccount at www.uhcsr.com
  2. Once logged in, click on My Coverage
  3. Click on “Enroll in Continuation” on the top and follow the directions to enroll.

Payments and billings are made directly through United Healthcare, not through the student catalyst account.

Please contact United Healthcare customer service at 1-800-767-0700 if you have any questions or concerns.
