RE: Business Travel Accident Insurance and Student Off-Campus Activities Insurance

Effective October 1, 2007, the University has changed both the Business Travel and 
Student Off-Campus Travel Accident insurance to provide enhanced coverage. When 
traveling on official University business or students traveling to participate in 
off-campus activities sponsored and supervised by the University, coverage will be 
provided worldwide, 24 hours a day, for a wide variety of accidents and incidents 
while away from the workplace or campus. 

This new coverage is broader, more generous than previous UC coverage and is 
provided at no cost to the traveler. The University is requiring registration prior 
to out-of-state and foreign country departure. The traveler must complete the 
Business Traveler Insurance form at http://www.uctravel.org for each trip. This 
registration generates a confirmation of coverage insurance card for each trip; 
provides medical emergency travel assistance telephone numbers; and lets the 
University know where we need to go to assist/rescue our students, faculty, staff, 
and any spouse/domestic partner or dependent children traveling with them.

To learn more about the new programs now provided by ACE USA, please visit 
http://www.uctravel.org this site will also explain Collection of Data for Employee 
and Student Out-of-State and Foreign Travel. A summary of the new coverage is 
provided in Business and Finance Bulletin BUS-74.

To register your out-of-state or foreign travel:
1. Prior to departure, go to http://www.uctravel.org.
2. Click on "UC Traveler Insurance," fill out the form, and save changes.
3. Print the form.  This provides the student or employee with confirmation of 
coverage and information to use in an emergency while traveling out-of-state and 
abroad. 

For additional information and questions, please contact Risk Management Services 
at (530) 757-8391 or dmpence@ucdavis.edu.
