Business managers at K-12 school districts like you have their hands full. Not only do you oversee the school’s operating finances, but you often handle human resources duties and policy implementation. You may take on some of the principal’s tasks so the principal can focus more on education . You also market facilities or programs.
And, as you may know at your own school, you also provide an invaluable non-teaching point-of-view, which offers a different perspective when discussing issues. But although your job description is quite broad, you may be curious how something like student accident insurance fits within your scope and financial responsibilities and could make a difference to your school.
Here’s how:
Despite your careful planning and supervision, accidents happen — in the classroom, on the sports field, and especially on the playground . Probably a day doesn’t go by without at least a trip and fall.
While unfortunate, those accidents could have a financial impact on your school’s operating expenses and budget if the school has to pay any of the medical costs due to litigation. This would not be covered under a general liability policy. Fortunately, student accident insurance is a cost-effective way to eliminate that budget risk.
This insurance helps pay the copayments, deductibles, and other out-of-pocket treatment costs that the student or student-athlete’s primary health coverage doesn’t cover. Those uncovered costs can add up to many hundreds, even thousands, of dollars, which could be hard for a family to manage.
If the family doesn’t have health insurance coverage, then they will be responsible for covering all of the medical expenses on their own. This is often when a family might consider suing the school district to cover the expense. But if a student accident plan is in place, they will have some financial benefits to fall back on and use.
The three main categories of plan types are:
Mandatory and voluntary plans can be presented without any cost to the school, while compulsory plans do have a premium cost. There are additional selections, including interscholastic sports plans, catastrophic injury plans, and others, offering you a wide variety of choices to share with the board. Visit the website or download the brochure to learn more.
