How to Apply for Coverage

 

Step 1: Complete an application

Apply online or by paper application by following the instructions below.

Helpful Tips: Only one application is required per family if your entire family is applying for the same plan. But if you and your spouse want different plans, for example, a different carrier or a different deductible with the same carrier, then complete a separate application for each of you and include any children under either of your applications. If enrolling a child or children only (without an adult), each of them must be covered under their own plan using the rate for an adult under age 25.
 
  • Online (easiest and quickest)

    Click here to go to Assurant Health's online quoting and application web site. A step-by-step guide on what to expect on the Assurant web site is shown in numbers 1 to 3 below.
  1. On the opening page, enter your zip code and click on the orange "Get Quotes" button.
     
  2. On the next page, enter the information for who you want to cover. Don't forget to choose the date you want coverage to begin in the "I want my coverage to begin on:" drop-down box. Coverage can begin no more than 60 days from when you are applying. Click again on the orange "Get Quotes" button.
     
  3. On the next page you'll see all Assurant plans and rates. Scroll down the page to the plan you want, and click on the orange "Apply" button beneath the monthly cost.
  • Paper Application

    To download a paper application, click here. This is an Acrobat Reader document.


    The application includes fill-in blanks so you can complete the form on your PC before printing it. Adobe Acrobat Reader version 5.0 or newer is required to use the fill-in blanks (click here to download the latest free version of Acrobat Reader).

    The application is 336KB in size, so depending on your connection speed it may take between a few seconds (broadband connection) to a minute or so to appear on your screen. Or call us and we'll send or email the application you need along with the Standard Health Questionnaire described below.
Step 2: Complete the Standard Health Questionnaire (SHQ)

If you apply online, this step is not necessary because the online process includes completing the SHQ.

To download the SHQ, click here. This is an Acrobat Reader document.

The SHQ does not include fill-in blanks, so you must print and complete it by hand. The SHQ is 388KB in size, so it may take a few seconds to a minute or so to appear on your screen.

A separate questionnaire must be completed for each family member. If enrolling a child under age 18, you or your spouse must complete the questionnaire on behalf of your child and sign for the child. Eligible, dependent children age 18 and older must complete and sign the questionnaire for themselves. Children are eligible only if under age 23
.
 
Step 3: Paying for your plan

Do not send a check or money order with your application. If your application is accepted, your payment will be deducted from the bank account shown on your Assurant Enrollment Form.
 
Step 4: Deadline to apply

The deadline to apply is the 15th if you want coverage to begin on the first day of the next month. For example, if you want coverage to begin on June 1, the deadline is May 15.

Your plan can also begin on the 15th of a month; the deadline to apply is the last day of a month. For example, if you want coverage to begin on June 15 you must apply by May 31.

If applying by paper application, the application must be received at Assurant Health by the dates mentioned above (15th or last day of month).

Missing information and/or a delay in receiving the information by the date shown above may cause a delay in the effective date of your plan.
