Student Coverage 101

Photo of a father giving his daughter a piggy back ride on his shouldersDo you have dependents who are currently in college or plan to become full-time college students? Paramount’s Student Coverage 101 program provides coverage for emergency, urgent and follow-up care, and care provided by student health centers while your student is at a school in the U.S. but outside the Paramount service area. There is no additional cost to you or your employer for the student program, and getting care is easy.

How to Get Coverage
Before seeking nonemergency care, excluding care provided at the student health center or urgent care facility, you or the student simply needs to call Paramount’s Utilization Management department at 1-800-891-2520 to provide prenotification and receive assistance in locating providers. The expanded coverage under this program is automatically extended to dependent students if they meet your group’s eligibility requirements for health plan coverage. Covered services are subject to your plan’s deductibles, copayments/coinsurance and benefit limits.
