All students registered for credit classes at The University of Southern Mississippi are eligible to use Student Health Services. Spouses of eligible students, who are not students themselves, and dependent children above the age of 12 may receive health care at USM SHS on a fee-for-service basis payable at time of visit.

All patients, including faculty and staff, regardless of insurance coverage, will pay a $20 provider fee. Any lab work, x-rays, injections or medications have an additional fee depending on the service or medication. These services are all at a reduced rate compared to other clinical services in our area. Our clinic and pharmacy accept many insurances so be sure to present your insurance card before paying to see if any of your fees are covered.
We will file your claim with any insurance carrier. Please note we may not be in your

Medicare, Medicaid, or CHIPS.
