Summer Health Services

Students who are staying in Madison for the summer—but not taking classes—may want to consider paying the Student Health Fee to have continued access to University Health Services (UHS).

UHS is open Monday through Friday this summer, with the same hours as the academic year, and offering the same services to meet basic clinical, pharmaceutical and counseling needs.

The Summer Health Fee is a one-time payment of $76 that grants eligibility for UHS visits between Saturday, May 23, and Monday, August 31.

Students covered by the Student Health Insurance Plan (SHIP) have access to UHS without paying the summer fee.

As a reminder, access to UHS is not a substitute for health insurance, as it is only open weekdays and does not provide emergency care.

For more information about UHS or insurance options, visit the University Health Services Web site or call 608-265-5600.
