Why should students who already have excellent insurance coverage via their parents or spouse/partners plans be forced to also pay for the Emory plan?
They won’t be. Emory has a student health insurance requirement with a “hard waiver”. Under this approach, students must either purchase the Emory Student Health Insurance Plan or show evidence of enrollment in a comparable health insurance plan. If the student has not waived out of the Emory plan by July 1, 2009, he/she will be automatically enrolled in the Emory plan and billed via Student Financial Services. However, the student will still have until the first day of Fall Semester classes (August 27, 2009) to complete the waiver through OPUS and get the insurance enrollment and charge reversed. Therefore, no student should find himself or herself in a situation where they have two insurance plans. . . . unless he/she ignores deadlines.
