WHAT IS A SECONDARY INSURER?
All athletic-related bills, not covered by your primary health insurance policy, are covered under the Department’s health insurance policy; which is secondary to your primary policy. This includes claims that are rejected or applied to your health insurance policy’s deductible. It also includes claims that are only partially paid. However, a copy of the Explanations of Benefits you receive from your primary health insurance provider must be forwarded immediately to the Athletic Department Insurance Coordinator.
