Students Who Already Have Health Insurance




I HAVE MY OWN INSURANCE – CAN I WAIVE THE SCHOOL INSURANCE PLAN?
 
If you are in J-1 status, F-1, or F-2 status and can show adequate health insurance coverage from another provider, you may request a waiver by completing the electronic waiver process, which includes uploading an insurance identification card.   To receive an insurance waiver, your insurance must meet all the Kansas Board of Regents (KBOR) minimum requirements or your waiver will be denied.  Stand-alone travel and/or emergency/urgent care only coverage is not acceptable. 

 
HOW TO SUBMIT A WAIVER THROUGH ECI

If you do not need the United Healthcare Student Resources (UHCSR) insurance plan, you must do the following:
  1.  Set up an account with ECI Services.
  2. Log into your ECI Services account to go to the waiver portal administered by ECI Services.  
  3. Enter your insurance information on the Waiver Form and upload a copy of the front and back sides of your insurance card.
  4. Waiver requests will be accepted and processed by ECI Services only during the insurance waiver processing dates listed above.
