Information for Parents

We are designing this section to inform parents and family about the services we provide our students. We are here to help your student stay healthy and we welcome your comments and suggestions.

All registered students, regardless of insurance, are eligible for SHS care.

If your student is under 18 years of age, a parent or legal guardian must sign a "Consent for Medical Treatment" form before the student can be seen at Student Health. You can download the consent form, sign it, and fax it to our Medical Records Department at (858) 534-7545. Read about other requirements if your child is under 18 years of age here.

Depending on insurance and other criteria, there may be charges for some services/products at Student Health. Your student should be prepared to pay these charges at the time of visit. We cannot bill a student's general campus account for charges. Any unpaid charges are billed through the Bursar's Office. Non-payment may affect a student's standing at the University. We accept checks, credit cards and cash; we do not accept Triton cards or American Express cards.

If you have questions or concerns, please feel free to contact us.
