How does the medical insurance program for a student-athlete at The University of Iowa work?

 

All students beginning Summer Semester 2008 and later are required to have medical insurance and to provide insurance card copies regarding this insurance. 

If your son/daughter does not have health insurance, they should see Chris Slauson, Medical Insurance Coordinator of Athletic Training Services.  Chris can assist your son/daughter to sign up for the SHIP Insurance Plan which is available through the University of Iowa's Benefit Office.

Individuals not on grant and aid are required to have in-network medical insurance coverage for care at the University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics.

For information about the SHIP program, please see the weblink in the right-hand panel under "INFORMATION LINKS."
