IUPUI Health Services will file insurance claims for medical students with Aetna insurance. Medical students are those studying to be medical doctors; this category does not include other programs that are within the IU School of Medicine.

IUPUI Health Services will not file insurance claims for any other students. Students outside of the above-mentioned groups with Aetna insurance or students with other types of insurance must pay for their visit at the time of service. A walk-out statement will be provided for students to file with their insurance for reimbursement upon request.

IUPUI Health Services will accept cash, checks, Visa, MasterCard, and the JagTag.

You need a referral if you have Aetna insurance. Ask your healthcare provider if you are insured under another plan.

Many universities charge a mandatory student health fee to lower the costs of student health visits or to provide a number of free visits to each student during a semester.

IUPUI charges a $20 fee per fall and spring semester known as a general services fee. It is split among several departments and used to benefit students. The money funds the free health screenings offered at the Campus Center Clinics and flu shots.

IUPUI currently does not have a student health fee, but IUPUI Health Services hope that this policy will change in the future. It is our belief that a mandatory student health fee would allow more students to access on-campus health services at a lower cost than the current system.

Many universities require students living on campus to show proof of meningitis vaccination. IUPUI Health Services currently recommends that all students living on campus receive the meningitis vaccination.

1. All students should have received a Tetanus/Diptheria vaccination within the past 10 years. Most Tetanus vaccines include Diptheria.
2. Residential students (living on campus) must show proof of immunity to measles, mumps and rubella. Two vaccinations are needed for those born after January 1, 1957. If born before that date, a history of having the illnesses is accepted. Proof of immunity also includes lab tests that demonstrate acceptable antibody levels to the illnesses. The form to submit is downloadable.

IUPUI clinical programs (medicine, dentistry, nursing, etc.) determine vaccination guidelines for students admitted to their programs. Currently, these guidelines include:

1. Proof of the measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) vaccination—2 doses
2. It is strongly recommended that before beginning clinical experiences, clinical students receive the Hepatitis B vaccination (3 doses). It is required of medical students.

International students will need Tuberculosis surveillance.
