Insurance

Your membership list must be lodged with TUSA to get covered by the insurance.
Why?
Because all members listed there are covered for incidents occurring at your club and society’s approved events under our student accident insurance policy.
Our insurance covers University of Tasmania (UTAS) students and associate members from 14-80 years of age for non-Medicare claimable medical expenses (some exclusions apply from 65-80 years of age).
- TUSA does not provide any personal accident, income, property, or indemnity insurance cover for Club members.
