Student Health Information
For students, the Health Science Center operates on a two-tier health system: Health Insurance and University Health Services. University Health Services has more complete information on all available services.
All students are required to have health insurance. If you have your own health insurance you must complete a waiver each semester to opt out of the insurance offered by UTHSC. If you do not complete the waiver, you will be charged for the insurance. Here are the plan highlights. The plan is administered by Gerald Holland Insurance. Call 888-393-9500, or contact via email.
University Health Services is available to all students. Most charges are covered by student fees. Walk-in hours are 8 - 10 a.m. Call 448-5630 for appointments or information
UTHSC Student Assistance Program (SAP)
UTHSC has a Student Assistance Program (SAP). This is a confidential, professional counseling service and is available 24/7 to help resolve personal concerns and situations that can affect a student’s well-being or academic performance. A student is entitled to 6 visits per year with no out of pocket expense. Spouses and partners may be included in the counseling sessions. More information can be found in this brochure.
Call 1-800-327-2255 for confidential support, or visit the SAP section of the University Health website.
