Student Travel Insurance
All UCEAP participants are automatically enrolled in the student travel insurance policy, providing medical and non-medical benefits so you can get the medical care you need while abroad.
The student travel insurance serves as your primary medical coverage while abroad. It works on a reimbursement basis. Costs for medical care must be paid out-of-pocket, and are then reimbursable according to the policy details.
Some benefits include:
- $0 deductible/$0 copay
- Prescription drug benefits
- Mental health counseling
- Medical/security evacuation
- Continued treatment for pre-existing, covered conditions
- Personal property (limits apply)
- Trip cancelation/delay
- Global teleconsultation
- Emergency Remote Behavioral Health Consultation
Coverage for COVID-19
COVID-19 is treated as any other covered sickness and is subject to the policy terms and conditions. If you experience symptoms of an illness while traveling overseas, you should seek medical care. Expenses resulting from medically necessary treatment will be considered for reimbursement according to the policy rules.
When coverage starts and ends
The student travel insurance begins 14 days before you are required to arrive in your study abroad location. Coverage ends 14 days after your program ends.
Preparing to Study Abroad
Information about medical providers in the host country where you want to study abroad is available through AXA Assistance, a non-insurance benefit included with the student travel insurance policy.
