Where we are now: Student Health Insurance Plan (SHIP)
Week 1
– Extended the timeline to finalize plans to present to the Chancellor.
– USG and GT discussing a SHIP version that includes dental/vision within the USG SHIP; impacts of inclusion on costs are being determined within UHCSR.
– GT began exploring options to increase the Institute’s investment to compensate the costs of this increase.
Week 2
– Confirmation of USG pursuing and negotiating a plan that includes dental and vision.
– This is a short-term fix while they move to a long-term, more sustainable, financial model for dental and vision services.
– Ensure the move to the USG SHIP does not remove Georgia Tech from previously negotiated services and coverage within UHCSR.
Week 3
– Plan negotiations are ongoing and focus on dental and vision coverage.
– Institute continues to internally pursue increased subsidy support.
