Keep in mind that your Student Health Fee does not cover care received outside of
the Student Health Clinic. However, if your symptoms are truly an emergency or an
urgent situation, please seek care immediately at the most appropriate facility. That
is when your health insurance is important!
Make sure you always bring your health insurance information whenever you seek medical
care, emergency, urgent, or routine services at the Student Health on-campus clinic.
