Outpatient Medical Care

Quality, accessible and convenient outpatient medical care is provided for acute illnesses, minor injuries, preventive care and medical problems. A physician, nurse practitioner, and/or physician assistant and registered nurses are on duty during operating hours.

In order to minimize patient waiting time, students are strongly encouraged to schedule appointments in advance. Patients without appointments will be triaged by the registered nurse, who will determine whether the patient should be seen that day or scheduled for the next day. Please note that patients who arrive more than 10 minutes late for appointments may need to reschedule their appointment for another day.

Want to reduce your medical costs?

Obtaining a referral: Students enrolled in the University of San Diego Student Medical Plan can reduce their out-of pocket costs by either seeking care at the health center, and/or obtaining a referral from the health center before seeking care from a community provider. Students who do not seek care at the student health center or obtain a referral, will be responsible for a $75/$200 per injury or sickness deductible. Please refer to your plan brochure for details.

All currently registered undergraduate, graduate, law and paralegal students who have paid the health fee are eligible for services at the USD Student Health Center.

Most services are provided free of charge and modest fees to cover costs are required for medications, immunizations and certain physical exams and labs. Payment is due at the time of service at the Student Health Center. Patients may pay with check, CampusCash, or VISA/Mastercard. (Sorry, cash and AMERICAN EXPRESS are not accepted.)
