Although the Student Health Center provides excellent outpatient care, all students are required to carry health insurance in the event of an accident or major illness. Montana Tech provides student health insurance through Blue Cross Blue Shield Insurance Company. The Student Fee Assessment includes the Blue Cross Blue Shield Student Insurance. Students who have other health insurance coverage may drop the Blue Cross Blue Shield plan and fee by returning a signed waiver form to the Student Life Programs Office. Contact Student Life if you have questions about the health insurance.

Montana Tech requires all students to have and to maintain medical coverage while attending the university.

• If you do not waiver  the Blue Cross Blue Shield of Montana student insurance, you will be charged for the student insurance plan.
• Students in Distance Learning programs are not eligible for the student insurance.
• The Insurance Plan is designed to cover major medical expense including but not limited to hospitalizations, outpatient surgery, prescriptions, and emergency services. The plan does not cover vision, dental, routine exams or contraceptive management.
