Student Insurance
The district may offer student insurance coverage. The superintendent/designee is authorized to receive quotations from insurance providers and to recommend for board consideration the source or sources of student insurance. Upon approval by the board, the district will distribute student insurance application forms. The District may supply claims information (time of accident, location of accident) when requested by a student or his/her parent.
To be eligible for consideration, insurance providers must provide knowledgeable representatives to process claims, answer questions concerning coverage and procedures, and expedite communication among claimants, doctors, medical providers, and the claims office. All insurance providers must be licensed to do business in the state of Washington.
