ELI Medical Insurance
Any current student who paid the ELI insurance fee for this session is enrolled and can access their insurance card one of two ways:
- Electronic ID Cards | Members can conveniently view, fax or email their ID card through the Geoblue mobile app under, “Eligibility.” Members can also access an electronic copy of the ID card on the Member Hub, at www.geobluestudents.com. The printed copy of the ID card includes all the same information as the plastic copy, and is still valid at providers’ offices; OR
- Email elibilling@udel.edu and we can email you a PDF copy of your insurance card.
Students who are on leave of absence (LOA) or vacation are not enrolled in ELI’s health insurance. Students who are staying in the United States and would like ELI health insurance coverage should contact elibilling@udel.edu with their full name, student ID#, and that they would like to have health insurance coverage. The cost is $305.00 and payment will be required before health insurance cards will be issued.
