Why does SHCS have no-show fees?
• The intent of this policy is to prevent appointments from going unused due to students not showing up. This will help us keep provider time more open so that we may offer you appointments in as timely a manner as possible! If students promptly cancel appointments they cannot make, that appointment is available for another student.
With support from the Student Health Advisory Committee, Student Health and Counseling Services (SHCS) has implemented a “No Show” policy to improve access to primary care (including IUD placements) and mental health counseling for students.
Late Arrival Policy
If you are more than 10 minutes late for your appointment there is a possibility you may not be seen by your provider. Being seen for your appointment will be left to the discretion of your provider based on the nature of your concern and the schedule of the provider.
No-Show Fee Appeal Process
If you feel there are special circumstances related to your no-show visit, you may request a review of your no-show fees. To submit an appeal respond to your notice via secure message at MyHealthRecord.ucsf.edu.
