The Student Health Center is able to bill insurance for visits with the doctor. Students are responsible at the time of the visit for the co-pay as determined by their insurance, which can be paid with cash, check, credit card, or charged to the student's school account. The co-pay is reduced for students who have the university student health insurance.
Thus, it is very important that students ensure that their insurance will cover medical care in Texas and that all students have a copy of their insurance card when they come to the clinic.
