Health insurance waivers: Check your One.UF account for notifications and reminders

The University of Florida requires all students to maintain health insurance coverage as a condition of enrollment. Students who are uninsured or whose insurance does not provide adequate benefits in the Gainesville area or their home campus must purchase an alternative plan or enrol in the Student Health Insurance Plan (SHIP).

Health insurance waivers must be completed each year before the fee payment deadline. The University of Florida will send email reminders and post notifications to your One.UF account to let you know when you need to renew your waiver. Students who do not submit a waiver by the deadline will be automatically enrolled in the UF-sponsored plan for every semester in which they are enrolled at least half-time and will be financially responsible for the related charges.

To submit a waiver, you will need your current health insurance card and your GatorLink credentials to access the secure portal. You will need to provide proof of comparable coverage, and your current insurance plan may be contacted to confirm that your coverage meets the school's waiver requirements. The University will conduct random audits throughout the year to determine the accuracy of waiver submissions.

After submitting a waiver, check your waiver status. It should update within 30 minutes to an hour, but it may take longer if the deadline is approaching. The different statuses you may see include:

• Pending Review: A default status for waivers where no health insurance company was selected.
• Pending Verification: The University is in the process of verifying that your coverage is active and meets the requirements.
• Verified: Your waiver has been successfully processed.
• Verification Failed: Your waiver could not be processed automatically through the payor's system and has been added to a queue for manual verification.
• Review Failed: The University has reviewed your plan and determined that it does not provide valid coverage.

"Pending Review" indicates that no health insurance company was selected, while "Pending Verification" means that the coverage is being reviewed to ensure it is active and meets the requirements.
• If your insurance is successfully verified, you will see a "Verified" status.
• If there is an issue with your insurance card information or the benefits offered, you may see a "Verification Failed" or "Review Failed" status. In this case, double-check the information and contact the Health Compliance Office if necessary.
