Student Health Information
To All Health Sciences Center Students:
This letter is to provide updated information to you on student insurance options.
You are REQUIRED by Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center (TTUHSC) to pay a Medical Services Fee each semester. With this fee, you can access healthcare in the clinic and see a nurse or physician at no charge for minimal or limited minor problems.
Health insurance is not required to obtain services from the Family Practice Clinic. Health plan coverage is strongly recommended for all students to cover major medical, emergency care, specialty care, and pharmacy as these services can be expensive. All Health Sciences Center students enrolled in 1 or more credit hours must be enrolled in the Academic Health Plan, unless comparable coverage is furnished. You may obtain suitable coverage from the following vendor at a very competitive price if you do not have other insurance.
Visit the web site listed below for plan highlights and/or to enroll in a plan. Representatives can answer any questions about coverage, guide you in your health plan coverage decisions, and assist you in problem resolutions.
Sincerely,
Margret G. Duran
Director, Student Services
