Insurance

University Health Services will file the patient's health insurance for each visit. If required by the carrier, the co-pay will be due at the time of the visit. We can serve as the primay care provider if the patient contacts the insurance company to make this changes. Call the number on the back of the insurance card to make these changes.

  2. Referrals to community agencies and services as appropriate using an established network.

Physical Exams

If the student requires a physical exam either for participation in a program offered by UTC or for employment, the cost of the exam will be filed to the patient's insurance.

Lab

Any lab work that is required for the continuation of patient care will be sent to a local lab for processing. These tests will be the patient’s responsibility, and will be filed to the patient's insurance carrier.
