Student Accident and Injury Insurance

If you are injured on campus or during a campus activity, Butte College maintains an insurance program to offset some of the costs associated with that injury.

Visit the Student Health Clinic for assistance in filling out a claim form.  You will then need to be seen by a Blue Cross Preferred Provider (not the Student Health Clinic) to start the claim.

Personal Insurance Plans

Low cost student health, vision and dental insurance plans can be researched online.

These plans are optional and may be purchased by contacting each company directly at the e-mail addresses or phone numbers listed below. The Student Health Clinic does not endorse specific insurance plans.

Most plans require that you are enrolled in at least 6 units and actively attending classes.

Tips for Buying Health Insurance

Read the entire brochure carefully. Pay special attention to:

• The list of exclusions (what is not covered under the plan).

• When the benefits begin and end.

• Who and where you can be treated. Some insurance policies have a specific "network" of health care providers to whom you can visit. If you go to someone out of the network, you may be responsible for paying a larger portion of the bill.

• What portion of any medical expenses you will be responsible for paying.

• The mandatory health fee students pay each quarter is NOT health insurance.
