Health Services

If you are a currently enrolled student with a valid Action Card, you are automatically eligible for all services provided by the Student Health Center (SHC), located at 750 5th Avenue East (348-6262).  Services are not available when school is not officially in session.

Your student health fee provides access to all SHC services and covers the cost of the SHC's nursing, assessment, triage, health education, health promotion, and counseling services.  As is true in other health care settings, there is a charge for office visits with the SHC's health care providers, for X-rays, and for laboratory tests.  The SHC accepts all health insurance plans and will bill your health insurance carrier for these services.  The SHC provides health care for all eligible students whether or not they have health insurance and without regard for their ability to pay.

The SHC charges for any co-payments required under students' health insurance plans, and there are fees for certain products and services such as orthopedic appliances issued and prescriptions filled at our pharmacy.  The student is responsible for fees for any services of non-staff physicians or consultants and for the costs of hospitalization or services other than those provided at the Student Health Center.
