Proof of current provincial or international health plan coverage is required each and every time you visit for a medical appointment with a doctor, nurse, or nurse practitioner (or any other health care facility, barring emergencies). Counselling appointments are covered by student fees and do not require health plan coverage.
Please note that your appointment may be rescheduled or a charge may be levied if you do NOT have proof of valid health insurance. Payment methods for such a charge include Debit, MasterCard, or Visa.
Provincial & International Plan Coverage
Provincial and International health insurance plans usually cover most medical care in doctor's offices, lab and x-ray facilities, and hospitals.
LUSU Health and Dental Plan
The Centre's health services and the LUSU Health & Dental Plan are supported by two separate ancillary fees. Opting out of the LUSU plan does not impact access to the Student Health and Wellness.
The LUSU Health & Dental Plan fee is levied and managed by the Student Union to assist with prescription costs, non-medical professional services (i.e. massage therapy), etc. for students. Talk to LUSU about the details of the plan or for "opt-out" information.
