STUDENT HEALTH INSURANCE PLAN 2017-2018
The University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus offers health insurance through the UnitedHealthCare
Insurance Company and provides a UnitedHealthCare StudentResources Student
Injury and Sickness Insurance Plan. All students enrolled in a degree and certain approved certificate seeking programs taking 1 or more credit hours are
automatically enrolled in this student health insurance plan unless a successful insurance waiver is submitted prior to the waiver deadline each academic year.
To waive out of the
student health insurance plan, your personal health insurance must
meet all of the requirements stated under Enrolling or Waiving Health Insurance to be approved. Waivers must be submitted each academic year
before the stated deadlines. For students wishing to waive insurance for the 2017-2018 academic year, the insurance waiver portal will be available in late summer.
Here you
will find various forms sometimes needed to file claims along with the late enrollment form. If you have any questions about any of these forms or
do not see the form you need, please contact the Office of Student Health
Promotion at 303-724-7674 or CUAnschutzStudentInsurance@ucdenver.edu.
Finding an in-network provider is easier
than you think. Please follow the instructions to ensure that you are seen by an
in-network provider.
It is each student’s responsibility to confirm
if a particular service is covered under the student health insurance plan.

active you will receive an ID card as well as access to your account at http://www.ameriben.com/amc.htm where
you will be able to view benefits, download your ID card, and find a
provider.
What if I have coverage
through an outside insurance company?
You can waive out of the
student health insurance plan by filling out an insurance waiver each fall. Your
personal insurance must meet all the requirements stated in Enrolling or Waiving Health Insurance in order to be approved. Waivers must be submitted each academic year before
the stated deadlines.
What about dependents?
We currently do not offer
the option of enrolling dependents on our student insurance plan. We recommend
