Barnard College Student Health Services

You are being referred to a specialist. A combination of parental and Student Insurance will pay towards your visit if you follow the steps below:

Bring the following items with you to your appointment:

1)    A completed three piece (triplicate) "Referral to Consultant" form or a referral to consultant form from your Barnard clinician.

2)    A claim form for the UnitedHealthCare StudentResources (the Barnard College Student Injury and Sickness Insurance Plan.) You may pick one up at the Front Desk or ask your clinician for one.

3)    If you are covered by parental or family insurance, an insurance member ID card and a claim form from your parental or family insurance policy, signed by the policyholder (i.e., your parent) if required by that insurance company.

4)    Approval from the Director of Health Services if you are being referred for surgery.

Remember…

If your parental or family insurance requires that you see only physicians in their network, you should schedule your appointment with them, or obtain the appropriate authorizations from them well in advance to see a physician who is "out of network."

If you are not sure if your parental or family insurance will cover you visit, you will need to find out prior to making your appointment. You still must submit your bills to your parental insurance before sending them to UnitedHealthcare StudentResources . You will receive an Explanation of Benefits (EOB) from them stating how much, if anything, was paid.

Balances left over after parental insurance has paid: some portion will be evaluated by Student Insurance if a Barnard clinician initially approved the referral and you properly file a claim with UnitedHealthcare StudentResources (usually within 90 days of treatment).
