INSURANCE – INJURY REPORTING

All full-time registered Iona Prep students are covered by the Christian Brothers Services Student Accident Plan. The plan is an “Excess” Plan over other valid medical coverage. You must first submit your medical bills to your insurance company. The Student Accident Plan is a program designed to reimburse parents/guardians for out-of-pocket expenses incurred from hospital, physician, and other medically necessary eligible expenses occurred as a result of an accident. This insurance provides coverage for students injured in school or during school activities.

Treatment must commence within 30 days of the accident by a licensed physician. All medical and dental expenses are only reimbursable if incurred within 104 weeks from the date of the injury. All bills must be submitted to Christian Brothers Services within 180 days of treatment. Please contact the Business Office for more detailed information on the medical coverage limitations and exclusions.

Procedure:

The procedure is simple but failure to follow it may result in loss of coverage. If a student is injured in school or at a school related activity he must:

• Immediately report the injury to his teacher, coach, trainer, moderator, etc. The teacher, coach, trainer, moderator will then complete a Student Incident Report, which will be reviewed and signed by either the Athletic Director, Dean of Students or Principal. • Obtain from the Business Office within 5 days of injury the Student Accident Notification of Injury Claim Form which has been completed by the school. This form has a section which needs to be completed by the student’s parent/guardian. • Submit the completed form to the address listed on the form for the Christian Brothers

Services Student Accident Plan. • Send all related itemized medical bills, Explanation of Benefits, or denial letter for services not covered by private medical insurance to the address listed on the form.

Please note: It is the responsibility of the parent/guardian to ensure the completed form is submitted to Christian Brothers Services in a timely manner to avoid loss of coverage.

For safety purposes, video/audio equipment may be used to monitor student behavior in common areas of the campus. Students will not be told when the equipment is being used. The Dean of Students or Principal will receive the video/audio recordings routinely and document students’ misconduct. Discipline will be in accordance with the Student Code of Conduct.
