How do I see a specialist?

If you believe you need to see a specialist, your first step is to make an appointment with a primary care provider at Student Health.

All specialty-care visits need to be pre-authorized by a Student Health provider. If a specialty-care visit is not pre-authorized, your insurance will not cover it. This applies to specialty-care follow-up visits as well.

For details, see Specialty Care Coordination & Referrals.
