These charges can all be applied to the student’s fee account, which will then be paid to Student Business Services.

Update Regarding Summer 2020 Health Center Fees and Office Visit Charges
Summer 2020 fees have changed due to academic programs being fully online. For information about fees and eligibility during the summer, please visit our summer services page here: https://shs.tamu.edu/summer-services/.
Additionally, the standard office visit charge has increased to $15. This increase is due to the Student Health Fee that is assessed with tuition being capped by the State Legislature. The increase to $15 will cover increased operating costs for all medical services SHS provides. SHS strives to keep total visit costs as low as possible and the last increase to standard office visits was three years ago.
