What is covered when I pay Health Center/Counseling Center fees each year?

The fees allow the Health Center and Counseling Center to provide low-cost services to all students. The fees also provide free counseling sessions at the Counseling Center.

How much does it cost to be seen at the Health Center?

  • Office visits are $25. 
  • Visits scheduled with the physician are $35. 
  • Labs, medications, supplies, or surgical procedures may incur charges.

We require payment at the time of service, or we can charge your student account. The charge must be paid online or at the Cashier’s window in Berndt Hall within two weeks.

We will supply you with an itemized receipt, which you can submit to your medical insurance for reimbursement. Your insurance company may also apply it to your deductible. If your insurance company processes your claim for payment, it will be sent directly to the policyholder.

If I'm on medication for a mental health reason, can I get my medication at the Health Center?

Most likely—our medical staff is very familiar with most medications used to treat depression, anxiety, and other mental health issues—and our pharmacy carries most of the commonly used medications.

I can't sleep—can you help me?

Our sleep habits can change for many reasons. We can discuss ways to get you the rest you need.

How do I get tested for STI's?

Schedule an appointment. We'll review your risk, perform an exam if needed, and make recommendations on testing and prevention. Check out the Centers for Disease Control for more information.

Do you have Family Planning services?

Yes, we carry the most common forms of birth control, including oral contraceptives (the "Pill"), Depo-Provera (the "shot"), and IUDs. We can also recommend other forms of non-hormonal birth control. Condoms are free at the Health Center.

 

I plan to travel internationally. Where can I get travel immunizations and advice?

Schedule a Travel Visit with one of our Registered Nurses. They'll get you on your way well-protected. If you are traveling with a class, check with your professor; they will likely schedule a Healthy Traveler Program session with a nurse as a guest speaker.
