Student Insurance Program has no effect on eligibility to use the Student Health Service. Laboratory and X-ray diagnostic procedures, medications, specialty clinics, and office procedures are available but there are fees charged for these services. There is also a nominal fee for supplies such as elastic bandages, crutches, and other medical devices. The Student Health Service is open from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. weekdays during the fall and spring semesters. During Christmas and spring breaks, the Student Health Service is open from 8 a.m. to noon and 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. weekdays.
Hours are subject to change to reflect the needs of the university.
The Student Health Service is closed on university holidays and weekends. All students are urged to have adequate health insurance coverage for illnesses or emergency visits to the local hospital or a physician's office when the Student Health Service is closed. Insurance coverage is also recommended for medical care that is not available at the Student Health Service, including treatment of major injuries, surgery, and hospitalization. The student is responsible for all charges for services provided by persons or institutions outside of the Student Health Service.
