Student Insurance
In order to control the need to increase the health fee and due to rising healthcare/medical supply costs; we are looking at providing GC students the opportunity to file on their health insurance plans. We do not plan to balance bill the student for any part of medical services the Health Clinic provides. The current health fee would serve as the deductible and would cover all services not covered by insurance. There would be no co-pays for most services. This filing agreement may or may not be available to our students enrolled in the fall-depending on what action the University System of Georgia Board of Regents decides upon this summer. Information on the new insurance plan information offered through the USG/BOR is forth coming.
Insurance is essential in case of emergencies and/or hospitalizations. Student should be aware of his/her coverage and keep a copy of their card or information on their person. They will be asked to provide health insurance information when they come to the clinic for an appointment. If your child is currently covered by health insurance, check with your plan to make certain he/she is covered in the Milledgeville area.
Students who do not have insurance or students who would like to add on additional insurance are encouraged to visit https://www.pearceandpearce.com/PearceSite/Default.asp for more information on student insurance.
