All students will be automatically enrolled in the university’s student health insurance plan. Students who have comparable coverage must complete the online waiver form to remove the premium from their student account. Students are urged to carefully review their options before waiving the university’s plan. HMO plans outside the Prescott or Daytona Beach area may not qualify as comparable health insurance.
To complete the waiver for Fall 2008, log on to www.SRStudentcenter.com after May 1, 2008. The deadline to submit a waiver is September 2, 2008.
For students starting in the Spring of 2009, the waiver period is November 10, 2008 through January 13, 2009. To complete the waiver for Spring and Summer 2009 log onto www.SRStudentcenter.com. Failure to waive the insurance by the semester deadline will result in the non-refundable insurance fee remaining on your student account. Embry-Riddle is not responsible for insurance waivers that are submitted after the deadline.
International students should contact International Students Services at (386) 226-6579 regarding insurance requirements and waiver options.
Maintaining good health promotes a productive university experience.
The Health Services staff is committed to facilitating students’
wellness through direct care, education and assistance with lifestyle
modification.
Services include assessment, prescriptive and nursing care, referrals,
wellness education and counseling, women’s health care, immunizations,
medical grounding of flight students and assistance with aerospace medical
concerns.
Students must satisfy the university’s immunization requirements prior
to enrollment or participate in campus-based immunization clinics. The
Medical Report form supplied by University
Admissions indicates the immunizations that students must document in
order to register for courses and reside in university-managed housing.
Prospective flight students should be aware that certain sensory impairments,
medical, neurobiological and psychological conditions and prescriptive
medications might delay or preclude medical certification by the FAA.
These issues should be discussed with an Aviation Medical Examiner (AME)
to ensure participation in flight instruction. Students may also contact
the Health Services clinical staff for information regarding eligibility
for medical certification.
