Costs
Most primary care examinations are free of charge through the collection of the student health fee. There is no co-pay, no deductible. Reasonable fees are charged for prescriptions and over-the-counter medications.
All students who paid the Student Health Fee (SHF) are eligible.
Fees are also collected for laboratory tests, procedures, treatments, specialty care services. Fees are minimal through the Student Health Insurance Plan (SHIP).
Payment: Payment is due at the time of service check, VISA, Mastercard, Discover, and American Express or CampusCash No cash accepted.
Insurance Coverage: Students are strongly encouraged to have medical insurance to cover at least medical emergencies. The student health fee is not insurance. Student health insurance is offered through Aetna Insurance.
Aetna Student Insurance Billing: In Fall of 2014 the Student Health Center began billing Aetna Student Health Insurance on behalf of students who purchased the policy through the University. When seen at the Student Health Center your deductible is waived.
Other Insurance Billing:The Student Health Center does not bill third party insurance companies. Some fees may be partially or fully reimbursed by your insurance. Obtain a receipt at check-out in order to submit out-of-pocket expenses to your insurance carrier for reimbursement.
Third-party services: All charges for services provided outside of the SHC, such as emergency or urgent care, referred specialist, radiology imaging, and outside lab testing are the responsibility of the student.
Low-cost clinics: A number of low-cost area clinics are available for medical services.
