Health and Wellness Services is your on-campus home for health care, regardless of what insurance plan you have. We bill eligible services directly through your insurance carrier (private or CU Gold Student Health Insurance Plan).

Out-of-pocket costs are dependent on individual health insurance plan benefits. 

How does insurance billing and payment work?

Students must present a copy of their insurance card (or show a picture of it) every time they check in at Wardenburg Health Center.

If a student has private health insurance coverage, Medical Services will file claims with the insurance carrier. Students are responsible for applicable co-pays, co-insurance, deductibles and any non-covered services (including those not covered by the BuffCare P). Balances will be directly posted to your student account through the Bursar's office. Please note, you will not receive a separate statement from Medical Services.

The following information will be helpful when confirming coverage with your insurance:

*Please note that some insurance providers are only able to identify in-network status through the individual provider NPI. Individual provider NPI numbers can be found on Our Providers page.

Out-of-state coverage

If you are coming to ��ƷSM����ӰƬ from another state, here are a few things to verify with your insurance carrier:

• Does your plan only cover urgent or emergency care when you are away from home? Medical Services only bills as an outpatient facility.
• Do you need a referral from your Primary Care Provider (PCP) before you can be seen by Medical Services?
• Can you change your PCP to a Medical Services provider? This will alleviate the need for a referral. Visit page.
• Does your insurance provide "Away from Home" coverage? This may allow a better benefit within Medical Services.
