TITLE: STUDENT INSURANCE COVERAGE
Occasionally students will incur injuries or loss of property while participating in
Linn-Benton Community College classes or activities. Tuition and fees paid to
Linn-Benton Community College do not include medical/dental/disability or theft
insurance. It is the individual student's responsibility to acquire the necessary
insurance dependent upon the needs.
There are a few classes where arrangements have been made in advance for Workers' Compensation coverage. This is not automatic and requires prior arrangement with the Business Office. Linn-Benton Community College also furnishes a limited secondary medical plan for athletes in varsity programs. Both Workers' Compensation and athletic insurance programs are very specific in applications covering relatively few students.
Linn-Benton Community College's liability insurance will provide coverage to the
college only when it is legally determined that the college staff was negligent or
performed a wrongful act. Student medical insurance is available by an outside carrier each term. All students are encouraged to have some type of medical insurance. International students on an LBCC issued I-20 are required to maintain health insurance each term for which they are registered.
