If you must be seen in the emergency department of an area hospital, you will be responsible for all charges.
Billing is arranged at the time of visit.
Charges may include facility use, drugs, X-ray, laboratory and physician fees. Student should carry proof of insurance if available. If your problem is not an emergency but you prefer not to wait until you can be seen in the Clinic, you may wish to go at once to one of Johnson City's urgent care centers . It is very important that students and their parents understand that the cost of hospitalization, accident care, laboratory and X-rays, surgery and other care provided by hospitals or urgent care facilities is their responsibility. ETSU assumes that students are covered on their parents' plans or have made arrangements to have their own insurance policies.
