Student Health Insurance

The University of Texas System contracts with United Healthcare Insurance to provide a Preferred Provider Organization (PPO) insurance plan to UTA students. A few basic benefits of this plan are outlined below. Please access the United Healthcare Student Insurance website for complete coverage information.

Treatment at Health Services

Some procedures performed at Health Services are covered at 100%. This coverage includes laboratory, pharmacy (co-pays are $10/generic, $15/brand name), x-rays, most gynecology, and mental health visits. Preventive procedures such as immunizations are not covered. Pre-existing conditions and the annual deductible do not apply to visits at Health Services.

Treatment at Another Facility

When it is necessary to have treatment at a facility other than Health Services, an annual deductible of $300 (for each plan member) must be met before the insurance company will consider reimbursement (including pharmacy charges). Once this deductible is met, the insurance company will reimburse you at a rate of either 80% (preferred providers) or 60% (non-preferred providers) for covered procedures.

Please consult your insurance website for spouse/children premiums. Note only enrolled UTA students are eligible to utilize Health Services. Spouses and dependents cannot receive treatment at Health Services unless they are also enrolled UTA students.

As always, if you have any questions concerning your insurance plan, you may contact Services at 817-272-2771.
