Columbia University Health Services


Fees


After paying the Health Service Fee, students pay no additional charges when using services provided on-campus, except for immunizations and travel assessments.

As of August 1, 2007, students enrolled in the Health Service Program will no longer be charged for the following six vaccines when administered at Health Services:
  • MMR
  • Hepatitis A
  • Hepatitis B
  • Hepatitis Combination A and B
  • Tetanus, Diphtheria
  • Tetanus, Diphtheria, Pertussis

Vaccinations are available to students not enrolled in the Health Service Program for a minimal fee. Fees are charged to cover the actual cost of the specific vaccine. Charges may be paid to Health Services by cash, check, Visa, or Mastercard.

Vaccine expenses are generally not covered by medical insurance benefits. Information about coverage of vaccine costs can be obtained by calling the insurance carrier’s customer service representatives.
