our services. Fees are charged for most of our medical care services. Many
health promotion services are free. Our fees are typically 30% - 50% less
than other clinics in the community. Payment is requested at the time of

carrier if services at the Student Health Center will be covered prior
to making an appointment. As a courtesy,
we will bill some insurance companies if a current insurance enrollment
card is presented at the time of service. Insurance payment for charges incurred at SHC
will be paid directly to the primary insured person, not to SHC. All charges are the responsibility
of the student and should be paid at each visit. Remember
to bring
your
current
insurance identification card and all subscriber information necessary
to bill your insurance company. Auto accident injuries cannot be treated at the Student
Health Center . You should go to an emergency room for treatment. SHC will
not file insurance claims related to auto accident injuries.
