With the increasing risks of providing patient care, it is necessary for you to be protected. This coverage is in addition to the accident insurance provided by the college. Each program will provide specific information related to their deadlines.<\/p>\n Health Insurance Coverage must be Major Medical Insurance. It usually includes primary and specialty care, urgent care including emergency room, hospital inpatient services, as well as ambulatory\/outpatient services. Copays, deductibles, maximums, and services covered vary by policy.<\/p>\n Proof of insurance will be verified each semester\u00a0by submitting a copy of an insurance card.\u00a0Verification of coverage from the provider will also be required if the name on the card does not match (e. g. covered under a parent\u2019s policy).<\/p>\n Students are required to keep the policy current and notify the program if changes occur. Failure to do so will result in removal from the clinical site and withdrawal from the program because students will not be able to meet their learning objectives.<\/p>\n Medi-share and other similar plans will not be accepted. After careful review and further\u00a0consultation with the clinical agencies, it has been determined those plans do not meet the criteria of the clinical agencies.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Possible Resources (This is not an endorsement of any site or policy):<\/strong><\/p>\n [\/vc_column_text][vc_raw_html]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[\/vc_raw_html][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1594832108603{margin-bottom: 20px !important;}”]<\/p>\n [\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n [\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/4″][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n [\/vc_column_text][vc_raw_html el_class=”search-box” css=”.vc_custom_1563825898678{margin-bottom: 0px !important;border-bottom-width: 0px !important;padding-bottom: 0px !important;background-color: #ffffff !important;}”]JTNDc2NyaXB0JTIwYXN5bmMlMjBzcmMlM0QlMjJodHRwcyUzQSUyRiUyRmNzZS5nb29nbGUuY29tJTJGY3NlLmpzJTNGY3glM0QwMDM3NzAzNDE0NjUyNjUyNzczNjMlM0FkMzNieWhkNGF1OCUyMiUzRSUzQyUyRnNjcmlwdCUzRSUwQSUzQ2RpdiUyMGNsYXNzJTNEJTIyZ2NzZS1zZWFyY2glMjIlM0UlM0MlMkZkaXYlM0U=[\/vc_raw_html][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n [\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text] RN-to-BSN students have the opportunity to complete NURS 4160 through a faculty-led study abroad experience in Costa Rica during Spring 2027.<\/p>Read more<\/a><\/li> These sessions are presented by Health Sciences Faculty Advisors and provide an overview of the health training options available at the college, the steps needed to apply and the expectations for success.<\/p>Read more<\/a><\/li> Start at ACC and transfer seamlessly to Texas State University!
