Check insurance before sending child to college.

10 October 2017 By admin Leave a Comment

When checking off items for college, the Missouri insurance department wants to remind students and parents not to forget insurance coverage.

“College students will be heading to school soon, some for the first time. Such a significant life change is likely to impact your insurance coverage,” Chlora Lindley-Myers, director of the department, said. “It’s important to understand what your coverage is now and what it will be after students leave for school in case you have to file a claim. A little bit of preparation on your part now can ensure all of your coverage needs are met later.”

The department offers these tips for families to make sure their students are properly covered when they’re off at school:

•Auto insurance: If your child is taking a car to college, check with your insurance agent. The price and coverage of your policy may change based on the city and state where your child will live, also, see if your insurance company offers a discount for a student’s good grades. The department has an auto insurance guide which provides  basic information. The guide is located on the department’s website at www.insurance.mo.gov.

•Homeowners and renters insurance:  Ask your agent if your child’s possessions will be covered by your homeowners policy. Some policies cover a student’s possessions if they live on campus. For students living off campus, consider renters insurance. A landlord’s policy will only cover the building, not the tenant’s possessions. College students should complete an itemized checklist of their possessions called a home inventory. When filing a claim, your insurer can ask for a home inventory to see a list of your possessions before paying out a claim. The checklist can help you during the claims process in the event of a fire, storm or theft. An easy-to-use  home inventory checklist  is available for free at the department’s website, along with free smartphone apps for iPhone and Android devices.

•Health insurance: Most young adults can stay on their parents’ health insurance up to age 26, regardless of marital status, financial dependency, residence or enrollment in school. Students should take copies of their insurance cards and check their parents’ health insurance plans to know which physicians and hospitals are in their network while away at school.
