Student Health Insurance

Texas Education Code Section 51.961 authorizes a governing board to require health insurance of students enrolled in health institutions. The University of Texas System, Board of Regents voted November 8, 2001, to include this requirement beginning with the 2002 - 2003 Academic Year.

Students are automatically assessed an insurance charge to their student fee bill for Mega Life Health Insurance. To waive this fee you are required to show proof of current health insurance coverage through another provider by completing the information below before the twelfth day of class for the Fall/Spring semester and the fourth day of class for the Summer semester of every academic year. Failure to provide this information before the deadline will result in forfeiting your option to waive the health insurance coverage and associated fee. Please note that it is not necessary to submit the waiver every semester, as after submitting the waiver in the fall and/or spring semester, the insurance fee will be removed from your bill for the remaining academic year. Please do not complete this form if you are purchasing Mega Life Health Insurance as assessed on your student fee bill.

For further instructions on accessing myUTH to submit your proof of insurance or confirm participation in Academic HealthPlans, please review the Insurance Certification Instructions.
