Fees and Payments

The Student Health Services Fee covers office visits and many of the basic services students may need from Counseling and Psychological Services and the Student Health Center. There are additional charges, payable at the time of visit, in the Student Health Center for immunizations, certain supplies (e.g., crutches, splints), certain in-house laboratory tests, and prescription medications purchased within the Student Health Center. 

Students can choose to pay the Student Health Services Fee to cover an undefined number of visits to the Student Health Center and Counseling and Psychological Services for the entirety of the semester, or students can choose to pay per visit. 

All undergraduate students enrolled in 12 or more credit hours are automatically charged the Student Health Services Fee each semester.

All graduate students enrolled in 9 or more credit hours are automatically charged the Student Health Services Fee each semester.

The Student Health Services Fee can be billed directly to a student’s University Student Account. Students may also choose to pay the fee in a lump sum, not through their University Student Account. Payments are accepted in the form of cash, check, TigerBucks, Visa, and Mastercard. Students may also pay a single-visit fee for appointments at Counseling and Psychological Services and the Student Health Center, as needed. Payments must be made at the time of the appointment at the Student Health Center front desk, located on the first floor of the August Center.

Students who have not paid the Student Health Services Fee are not charged for the first two urgent care appointments at Counseling and Psychological Services or for urgent care appointments that result from a post-hospitalization check-in. In addition, students are not charged for appointments that result from being escorted to Counseling and Psychological Services for an urgent care appointment.
 

RIT Wellness is committed to supporting all students in their ability to access care, regardless of financial status. Students who can provide evidence of financial hardship may be eligible to receive financial assistance. All students who wish to request financial assistance must ask the Counseling and Psychological Services receptionist to send a Financial Assistance Form via the RIT Wellness Portal.

Counseling and Psychological Services and the Student Health Center do not bill insurance companies directly for services provided, however, students may obtain a receipt for a single-visit fee, which can be submitted to their insurance company for consideration of reimbursement (please note that not all insurance companies will reimburse single-visit fees). Insurance companies will not reimburse payment of the full Student Health Services Fee.

If you need a receipt for insurance purposes or need to access handouts from your appointment, follow this easy step-by-step guide for Finding your Appointment Handouts and Receipt on the Portal.
