Health Insurance?

<p>I'm confused. UF will purchase health insurance for you and factor it into your tuition? Even if you already have health insurance?</p>

<p>No, you are not paying for insurance, you are paying for the health fee. </p>

<p>What is the "Health Fee"?</p>

<p>The mandatory health fee (paid when your tuition is paid) includes professional office visits with the SHCC medical and nursing staff. Any charges incurred at the SHCC, including lab, x-ray, medications, casts, crutches, supplies, etc., or referrals to hospital emergency rooms are your financial responsibility. Find out more about paying your fees.
