UConn RFP#CDR083126 Student-Athlete Alternative Plan Design.pdf

This is a Request for Proposals document from the University of Connecticut seeking qualified student health insurance providers to deliver a comprehensive Student Health Insurance Plan beginning with the 2027-28 academic year. The plan must include minimum coverage requirements specifically addressing intercollegiate sports-related injuries with a proposed maximum to be provided by the insurer, coverage for both international and domestic student athletes, a flexible term to accommodate athletes leaving the University due to mid-year transfer or graduation, an expansive network to support athletics' specialty care and diagnostic testing needs, unlimited medical evacuation and repatriation services with travel assistance, and at least two plan options consisting of a basic plan and an enhanced "plus" plan.

The document establishes specific plan design requirements but does not detail pricing terms, set-asides, incumbent information, response dates, or contract award timelines within the provided content. The focus on comprehensive coverage for student athletes, particularly the emphasis on intercollegiate sports injury coverage and international athlete support, indicates the University's priority to ensure robust health insurance protection for its athletic population alongside standard student health coverage.
