Fees...

    The pre-paid health fee (PPHF) is a mandatory fee charged to students taking more than 6 credit hours a semester that automatically appears on the semester bill. Students taking fewer credit hours may choose to pay the fee and receive the same services. This fee covers the office consultations with our providers. The fee supports a significant portion of the SHC’s operations.

     It is important for students to understand that the PPHF is not insurance. Sometimes students may require testing or procedures that are not covered by the PPHF. Some examples include casting or splinting, laceration repair (stitches) and all laboratory tests.
Any charges not covered by the PPHF can be paid by cash, check, credit card or will automatically be billed to the student account. Those charges can then be submitted to a medical insurance carrier. For patient confidentiality, charges on the student account will show as “Student Health Charge,” without any details of the reason for the visit. Services covered by the health fee are subject to change. Insurance is required for all international students (regardless of the number of credit hours the student is taking) and is strongly recommended for domestic students.

Effective July 1, 2009, students will be charged a nominal amount for all lab tests and procedures.
