IMPORTANT: HEALTH INFORMATION FORMS FOR ALL FAMILIES Attached to this letter, parents will find three important health related forms. If you have not already done so, I would ask that you review these and complete them, as they pertain to your child or children. Student Health Certificate Update This form is required for all new and returning students. It provides us with up to date OHIP numbers and version codes, as well as medication and health updates. Please ensure that current contact information is provided for use in the event of an emergency. If you have not already done so, please complete this form and return it to the TCS health centre by fax (905-885- 8860) or email to jkedwell@tcs.on.ca. Seasonal Influenza Immunization Consent Form This fall, the School will be offering flu shots on campus, once again. The consent form must be completed for each student requiring a flu shot. If you wish your child to receive a flu shot this year, please complete this form and return it to the TCS health centre by fax (905-885-8860) or email jkedwell@tcs.on.ca. Health Insurance Coverage for International Students This letter explains details about health insurance for international students. For returning families, a reminder that our TCS coverage does not automatically renew each school year; the School must receive an email request each year to enroll students in this insurance plan. Please contact me by email at jkedwell@tcs.on.ca if you wish your son/daughter to be covered with this insurance for the 2017-2018 school year. If you have any questions about any of the health forms, please don’t hesitate to contact me at any time in the TCS health centre by phone (905-885-3217 ext. 1216) or email (jkedwell@tcs.on.ca). Sincerely, Jennifer L Kedwell, RN Director of Health Services Trinity College School Health Insurance Coverage for International Students 2017-2018 Trinity College School has once again arranged for health coverage to be made available for our international students with insurance provider Destination Travel. The Destination Travel International Student Hospital and Medical Elite Plan coverage can be obtained or renewed by email request to Jennifer Kedwell, R.N. at jkedwell@tcs.on.ca. The premium for an annual policy for the current school year will be $650. A reminder: This coverage does not automatically renew for returning families; you must renew your coverage for 2017-2018 by contacting Ms. Kedwell. We strongly recommend that you have health coverage in place for your son or daughter before they arrive at the School in September. We realize that some parents may have coverage through their own places of employment or will purchase other insurance for their children before they leave home. Students are under no obligation to participate in the School’s plan; however, should you wish to enrol your son or daughter, please contact the school health centre and we will arrange for your child to be enrolled. Please be reminded that we do not administrate third party insurance coverage through the School. Students not covered by our school plan will be responsible for paying medical bills through their student accounts. All original receipts will be provided for reimbursement purposes. Students who live overseas but are Canadian citizens are eligible to apply for OHIP (Ontario Health Insurance Plan) coverage. They may apply immediately upon arrival in Canada, but will serve a three month waiting period before the coverage becomes effective. A pro-rated version of our international student plan may be purchased to cover this period of waiting time. If your child is already covered by OHIP, please disregard this letter. However, if your child has an OHIP card with a pending expiry date, please make contact with the school health centre to arrange a renewal appointment at the local OHIP office. Please contact me at the school health centre via email or telephone if you have any questions. You will find my contact information at the bottom of this letter. Sincerely, Jennifer L. Kedwell, RN.
