4. Health Essentials 4.1 Health Insurance

Full or part time graduate students may purchase health insurance from the health center. Basically, health insurance comes in two flavors (with or without a deductible) and will cost you about $400-500/semester. These are reasonable rates and the service provided is very good. For more information contact:

	Insurance Office
	Hartshorn Health Service
	Colorado State University
	Fort Collins, CO 80523-8031
	(970) 491-5118

International students MUST have health insurance. If international students do not intend to purchase health insurance from the Hartshorn health center, they need to confirm that their insurance meets the minimum requirements set by the school and must fill out a compliance form (obtained from International Programs Office, Laurel Hall, (970) 491-5917) before beginning of each semester. Failure to do so will result in their student account being automatically charged with the health insurance fee.

4.2 Medical Facilities

Hartshorn Health Service is the on-campus student health facility. The facility offers a wide range of treatment services: medical clinic, children's clinic, women's clinic, psychiatric services, allergy/asthma clinic, dental clinic, dermatology, immunizations, optometry clinic, orthopedic clinic, physical therapy as well as drug and alcohol programs. All health records kept by Hartshorn are confidential and not part of school records.
