Medical Clinic has established contracts with many major health insurance plans. Students with these insurance plans can have their charges billed directly by presenting a valid insurance card with policy information.
If you do not have insurance or have a plan we are unable to bill directly, you are responsible for charges. After you have paid for your charges at the Medical Clinic, you may be able to submit the charges to your insurance company for reimbursement. Contact us if you have questions.
Please bring your insurance card to every visit.
Co-Pay
On your insurance card there may be a co-pay charge. This is the amount that must be paid by the student at the time of the office visit. Your insurance will not pay this amount.
We accept cash, checks, Visa, MasterCard, Discover, American Express and Campus Cash.
The Medical Clinic charges a $15 missed-appointment fee to patients who miss more than two appointments. If circumstances prevent you from keeping an appointment, a phone call to cancel can help you avoid incurring the fee. Health insurance companies do not pay this fee.
Getting health insurance can be complicated. If you don't currently have insurance, there are resources in the community to help.
