You are responsible for any charges incurred at each visit. Upon request, UHS will bill (file a claim with) your health insurance company. If you do not have health insurance and cannot pay at the time of service, or if your health insurance declines to pay for any part of your charges, UHS will post the amount due to your What I Owe.

You must pay for purchases in the Pharmacy at the time of sale. The Pharmacy accepts most major prescription drug insurance plans.

Payment Options

You may pay at the UHS Cashier/Insurance office (SSB 2.106B) with cash, check, money order, MasterCard, or Discover only for charges incurred at UHS on the same day.

If you don't pay at the time of your appointment, you can pay later online through What I Owe or in person at the Cashier office in the Main Building. For details, click What I Owe in Helpful Links.

To maintain your privacy, we do not post medical details to your What I Owe page. You can obtain an itemized statement in the UHS Cashier/Insurance office. Be aware that if you've given anyone eProxy privileges to pay your bills online, they can see your UHS charges. However, they cannot see the reason for your visit, your diagnoses, or the specific services you received.

Financial Bars

A financial bar will be placed on a student's record if payment is not received within 10 days from the date the charge is posted to What I Owe. A bar prevents the student from registering for classes or obtaining official transcripts or a diploma. Students must pay their bill in full to clear the bar.
