LDS Business College Student Health Plan

The College requires all students with nine credit hours or more (as of the tuition deadline date) to carry adequate medical insurance. Enrollment in the Student Health Plan satisfies the College’s insurance requirement, as does enrollment in a group medical plan provided by the student’s employer or spouse’s or parent’s employer. For another medical insurance plan to meet this requirement, it must:
1. Provide at least 80 percent coverage for all major medical expenses, including physician, hospital, and ancillary service.
2. Have an individual annual deductible of no more than $500.
3. Have an annual plan limit of no less than $25,000.

Students must either enroll in the Student Health Plan or provide verification of other adequate insurance coverage. Students who do not return a properly completed insurance verification form to the Cashier’s Office or go online at www.LDSBC.edu to complete insurance coverage options will be enrolled automatically in the LDSBC student health plan and assessed the appropriate premium. Payment is due by the tuition payment deadline each semester for students with nine credits or more. A new insurance form or waiver is required each new school year (Fall Semester). Students missing the tuition deadline must also provide insurance documentation. Students must attend nine or more credits to enroll in the health plan.

Continuing students wanting to take a summer break (or less than nine credit hours) and remain insured during the summer semester must have registered for the upcoming Fall Semester (nine or more credit hours) and have paid the insurance premium by the 1st day of the Summer Semester.
