A new contract between Christ Hospital and Student Health Insurance includes the Christ Hospital as an in-network provider.  What this means is that services rendered by Christ Hospital are covered at 80% with a UHS referral and subject to the pre-existing exclusion clause and medical necessity.  The student’s 20% copayment is subject to a $250 deductible.

Eligible expenses incurred at St. Luke Hospitals are being covered at 80% (with a UHS referral and subject to the pre-existing exclusion clause and medical necessity) as well however; Student Health Insurance does not currently have a contract with them.  We anticipate a provider contract with St. Luke Hospitals in the near future however; we do not have a date for which the contract will be effective.

University Hospital, located at 234 Goodman Street; Jewish Hospital located at 4777 E. Galbraith Road; and Fort Hamilton Hospital located at 630 Eaton Avenue are affiliated with The Health Alliance of Greater Cincinnati.
