I understand the international medical insurance policy I am required to purchase only covers the duration of the study abroad program and therefore I will not cancel my student health insurance or other medical insurance policy that covers me in the United States. Further, I understand that, though covered by the UConn approved policy or other comparable policy, I may be required to pay or show proof of ability to pay in advance for most medical expenses, and that I must file claims directly with the insurance company myself. I understand and acknowledge that, if I am required to be hospitalized while in another country or in the United States during this program, I will be legally responsible for the payment of such hospitalization and that UConn does not assume any legal responsibility for such payment.
