What is the difference between the Delta PPO plan and a Delta DHMO plan?

A Dental PPO (Preferred Provider Organization) plan offers a network feature. PPO dentists participate in the network thereby agreeing to accept contracted fees as payment in full rather than their usual fee for patients. When you visit a PPO dentist, you typically pay a certain percentage of the reduced rate (co-insurance) and the plan pays the rest. Preventive and diagnostic services are covered at 100%.

A Dental Health Maintenance Organization (DHMO) plan requires you to choose one dentist or dental facility to coordinate all of your oral health needs. If you need to see a specialist, your primary care dentist will refer you. A DHMO plan does not have any deductibles or maximums. Instead, when you receive a dental service, you pay a fixed dollar amount for the treatment (co-payment). Often, preventive and diagnostic services have no copayment, so you pay nothing for these services. However, if you visit a dentist outside of the network, you will be responsible for the entire bill.

I signed up for eye insurance and never received an ID card?

You will not receive a vision care ID card. Your vision care provider just needs your name and date of birth to confirm benefits and verify coverage at the time of service. You can print and cut out this  to be sure you have your plan information handy whenever you visit your vision care provider.

How do I cancel NU-SHIP due to graduation?

Why is my out of state HMO and/or Medicaid plan not considered comparable coverage?

Unfortunately, most out of state HMO/Medicaid plans do not meet 澳门六合彩开奖记录’s comparable coverage requirements. This is because these plans provide no non-emergency coverage in the Chicago and Evanston area, meaning that the student and the University assume the liability and financial burden of uncovered care should the student have non-emergency medical needs while on campus.

If you are enrolled in an out of state HMO plan we encourage you to reach out to your insurance carrier to see if a rider is available which provides a guest network for the Chicago/Evanston area. If this is not offered by your insurance carrier then you will need to either enroll in the NU-SHIP or seek alternative comparable coverage.

Why is it mandatory for international students to be enrolled in the NU-SHIP?

The mandatory NU-SHIP enrollment requirement applies to all international students. 澳门六合彩开奖记录 requires all degree-seeking international students – students holding a J-1 or F-1 U.S. visa – to confirm their annual 澳门六合彩开奖记录 Student Health Insurance Plan (NU-SHIP) enrollment, and maintain coverage in the NU-SHIP, for the entire time they are studying at 澳门六合彩开奖记录.

The requirement stems from J-1 and F-1 students having visa requirements involving insurance coverage. Additionally, the cultural difference between our healthcare system and many others in the world caused problems where international students either did not maintain enrollment for the full year or did not have adequate coverage.

The result was financial burden that resulted in a disruption to studies, as well as increased liability on the university’s side. A cross-campus policy committee deemed it necessary to ensure international students maintain sufficient coverage by requiring participation.

Do I need a referral to seek care outside of 澳门六合彩开奖记录 Medicine Student Health Service?

What is the patient responsibility for in-network mental health visits?

Maximum patient responsibility of $20 per visit. No policy year deductible applies.

What is the patient responsibility for out-of-network mental health visits?

$20 copayment then the plan pays 80% of the balance of the recognized charge per visit thereafter. No policy year deductible applies. This means that for a visit where the provider charges $165, your responsibility will be $33. However, reimbursement for out-of-network providers is based on the RECOGNIZED cost. If the recognized charge is $165, but your provider bills $185, then your patient responsibility would be $33 plus the additional $20 over the recognized cost. This would bring your cost to $53. It is important to use in-network providers wherever possible in order to reduce your financial burden.
