Do I need medical insurance to use the SHC? Should I drop the insurance I have now to save money?

You do not need medical insurance to use the SHC. Most medical visits are offered without charge to eligible SSU students (see Funding and Eligibility). Though many of your medical needs can be met by the SHC at little or no cost, we strongly recommend you continue your current health insurance (or get insurance if you don't have it) to help cover services that are beyond the scope or hours of availability of the SHC.
