Health Care Overview

Fees for Health Services

There is no charge for a routine office visit for students who have paid the NMSU Health Fee. The Health Fee is included in tuition for full-time main campus students. Part-time or community college students may choose to purchase the health fee or pay the office visit. 
 
An office visit fee applies to all students not classified as full-time who have not paid the health fee or are transitional students (up to 3 months post-graduation).
 

Fees that apply to all students

  • Fees for laboratory tests, or medical supplies
  • Fees for diagnostic procedures or treatments
  • Pharmacy charges (prescriptions may be filled at the pharmacy of your choice)
  • Individual fees are available on request and provided as a statement after the visit

Access & Eligibility Guidelines

  • Provide only acute medical care for minor illnesses and injury
  • Same-day appointments which open at 8:00 am Monday-Friday until filled
  • Urgent care will be assessed through nurse triage during operational hours
  • Payment is due at the time services are rendered by cash, check, credit card or AggieCa$h

Insurance 

  • The AHWC is not an in-network provider for any insurance plan except for the international student insurance.  However, most services are lower than deductibles and co-pays
  • The AHWC will courtesy file for insurance plans if the patient seeks personal reimbursement and has an insurance card for verification

Medicaid Notice:  Students may receive care at the Aggie Health & Wellness Center with or without insurance.  However, the Aggie Health & Wellness Center practitioners are not participating providers for Medicaid.  If you plan to use Medicaid in the community to pick up your prescriptions, have lab work or imaging, you will be responsible for the full out-of-pocket costs.  We encourage you to check pricing in the community and at the Aggie Health & Wellness Center pharmacy or lab before receiving services.  This can help you make an informed decision about your care and avoid unexpected costs.
