Just because your insurance plan is in-network, doesn’t mean that all services will be covered or paid in full by the insurance company. You still may be responsible for co-pays, co-insurance and deductibles. If your insurance plan is out-of-network, we will still file your claim to the insurance company. However, most out-of-network plans pay less or none of the costs of your services. All insurance plans are different, so call your insurance company to verify benefits prior to your appointment. Their number is typically located on the back of your insurance card.

The health fee is assessed at a set rate per credit hour and guarantees every enrolled student paying the health fee access to care at University Health Services. The health fee does not cover all medical services/charges provided by University Health Services. All primary care office visits will be covered and other services offered at reduced rates. At FSU the health fee also funds the Medical Response Unit, the Center for Health Advocacy & Wellness, and Counseling & Psychological Services. 

How Will I Be Billed?

Deductibles, Co-pays, Co-insurance, and charges not covered by your insurance plan will be billed to your Student Central Account after the insurance company has paid its share. This process may take from 30 to 90 days or more. Details on how you can pay these charges are located here: http://fees.fsu.edu.

How Do I Use My Insurance?

How your healthcare is paid for depends on whether you have health insurance and the type of coverage you have. The Insurance Billing Department will file insurance claims for services provided at the Health Center. To help us provide the best service possible, prior to your appointment, call your insurance company to verify your benefits. Their number is typically located on the back of your insurance card.
