Student Health Services Eligibility and Payment

Student Health Services Eligibility and Payment

• I. Student Eligibility

  Students currently enrolled for classes are charged a student health fee along with their tuition.
  
  This health fee entitles students to access clinic and mental health services.
  
  Students not enrolled for a Summer term or recent graduates may pay a health fee that will allow them access to clinic services for one semester.
  
  Only currently enrolled students may utilize the clinic pharmacy. All students must show a current Rattler Card at the time of service.

• II. Student Health Fee

  The Student Health Fee is currently $6.91/credit hour. 
  
  The health fee is charged to all enrolled students with the exception of distance learning students.
  
  Students not enrolled during a summer session or that have recently graduated will be charged $103 to access clinic services.

• III. Payment for Services

  Charges for services not covered by the student health fee (including; labs, X-rays, EKGs, medications, immunizations, procedures, medical supplies) are discounted and are lower than the cost of care from most community providers.
  
  Charges for services will be placed on the student’s financial account and must be paid prior to registration for the following semester.
  
  At times, a student may be referred to a community provider or hospital for consultation and/or specialized services.  Students are responsible for all charges from community providers/facilities they are referred to and for emergency transport.
  
  *No student should delay seeking treatment because of inability to pay for services.*
