Georgia Board of Regents Insurance Plan
Spring/Summer 10 Term
Mandatory Plan
All nursing students, graduate assistants, and international students with an “F” or “J” visa are required to enroll in the Mandatory Plan or request a waiver on-line through Pearce and Pearce. The health insurance premium will be added to your fee schedule. The rates for the fall term are:
Undergraduate: $501.00
Graduate: $571.00
Voluntary Plan
Any student that does not meet the requirements for the Mandatory Plan and wishes to purchase health insurance through Pearce and Pearce can enroll and pay on line directly to Pearce and Pearce.
The Voluntary Plan rate for the fall term is $969.00.
Waivers
Students in the mandatory groups will have the option to waive the student insurance if they have a pre-approved insurance plan. They can apply for a waiver on-line by visiting the Pearce and Pearce website.
Please note that waivers are approved term by term so you must re-apply each term to confirm your information has not changed. If you had a waiver for the fall and you selected you wanted the same waiver for the spring/summer term, you will not need to submit another request. Pearce and Pearce will verify you still have the same coverage in effect. If you have forgotten, and go into the system and try to complete a new waiver, the system will alert you and say you already have a pending waiver for the spring/summer completed in the fall If your request for a mandatory plan waiver is denied, you will be given a reason for the denial and you can appeal the decision.
The open enrollment expiration date for the fall term is February 8, 2010 and the waiver request deadline is February 8, 2010. After this date, Pearce and Pearce will close their website for waiver requests and the student will be required to pay the Pearce and Pearce student health insurance fee.
