Harvard University Student Health Plan

The Harvard University Student Health Plan has two parts that work together:

1. The Student Health Services Fee (SHF) covers most services at the Harvard University Health Services (HUHS).
2. Blue Cross Blue Shield PPO (BCBS) is designed to complement the healthcare benefits available under the SHF and covers hospitalization, emergency care, and some services and procedures not available through HUHS.

Those students who have coverage under a different health plan that meets the Commonwealth of Massachusetts requirements may be eligible to waive the BCBS portion of the Harvard University Student Health Plan. All waivers must be completed on-line by September 30, for the fall and March 31 for the spring; no waivers will be accepted after these dead-lines. Before making this important decision, please review the Harvard Student Health Plan summary of benefits, limitations and restrictions and the Commonwealth of Massachusetts requirements, available on the HUHS website (click on "Student Insurance"). If you are unable to access the HUHS website and need to request printed forms, or if you have questions, please contact a Member Services representative.

Confidentiality and Consent

The confidentiality of all records and other medical information about patients at HUHS is protected to the full extent of the law and follows the ethical practice guidelines of the medical, psychiatric, and psychological professions. As of April 14, 2003 all aspects of HUHS medical records and patient-related electronic communication are in full compliance with HIPAA regulations. The same policies and procedures regarding confidentiality of records are practiced at the Bureau of Study Counsel (see Bureau of Study Counsel, page 402). HUHS records from the Mental Health Service are kept separate from general medical records. Records of both types are kept in secure locations within HUHS and are available only to the HUHS staff members directly involved in a specific case. Written authorization from the student is necessary to release record information to any third party except in highly unusual circumstances that are required by law. Any questions of concerns about issues of confidentiality or patient rights at HUHS should be addressed to the Patient Advocate at (617-495-7583) or patadvoc@huhs.harvard.edu, and students can also consult the Harvard Student Health Insurance Handbook on this topic.

HUHS and BSC clinicians, as well as the Accessible Education Office (AEO), may be called upon to consult with College residential officials and administrators regarding the impact of a student’s physical or emotional health on residence, on the necessity of a medical leave of absence, or on temporary or ongoing special arrangements or accommodations (see also the section on Effect of Health Issues on Dormitory or House Residence, page 330). Such consultations will ordinarily be conducted with the student’s express knowledge and consent. Hence, at the request of a student, or of a Resident Dean with the student’s knowledge and consent, HUHS or BSC clinicians or AEO may provide relevant information about the impact of a physical illness, disability, emotional difficulty, or other health condition on a student’s residential and academic life in conjunction with a student’s petition for residential or academic arrangements or accommodations. HUHS and BSC clinicians and AEO are prohibited from disclosing any information independently obtained or offered about a student’s medical or mental health condition or care that is irrelevant to the arrangements of residential and academic adjustments under consideration.

In certain circumstances it may be possible or advisable for HUHS or BSC clinicians or AEO to obtain a student’s consent to a disclosure of medical or mental health information. One exception to obtaining a student’s consent, at least temporarily, is the rare instance in which a student’s medical condition or behavioral disturbance poses a danger to the student or threat to others or to the community. HUHS or BSC clinicians or AEO may then disclose any relevant information to any appropriate person, including College officials, for the purpose of protecting the student, others, or the community from harm. Generally, even in this situation the clinician would make every effort to notify the student of the need to disclose and the reason for such disclosure.

It is generally useful for the College to know when a particular student has suffered a serious injury or illness, for such purposes as arranging academic relief or assuring that the student can return safely to residence. For this reason, it is the College’s policy that HUHS will normally inform the College when a student is admitted to or discharged from Stillman Infirmary or other area hospital and, in certain circumstances, when a student receives emergency care at an area hospital’s emergency department. In case of hospitalization, while HUHS will not share medical or mental health information concerning a student without that student’s consent in ordinary circumstances, HUHS will customarily notify a student’s Resident Dean or his/her designee (e.g., another responsible residential administrator) that a student has been admitted. HUHS will not, without the student’s consent, disclose any other information about the student, such as diagnosis or treatment, but will only inform the Resident Dean or designee of the fact of the student’s admission. This information is intended to alleviate the concerns of College officials as to a student’s whereabouts and safety, and to allow communication with parents in the event that the parents have been unable to locate the student.

In the case of treatment of the student in an emergency department of an area hospital HUHS will not communicate notice to the College of every referral or transfer of a student to a local emergency department, or of its knowledge of a student’s receiving emergency medical care elsewhere. Two circumstances that may call for HUHS communication involve safety considerations. First, if a Resident Dean, other residential official, or College administrator, who has reason to believe that a student is not in residence and may be in a medical facility, should contact HUHS regarding a student’s condition, the HUHS clinician may disclose only that the student is safe. Second, when, in a HUHS clinician’s medical judgment, a student is in a life-threatening condition, or is medically or psychologically unstable, or has sustained an illness or injury that will likely result in a hospital admission or require after discharge care, that clinician will so notify the student’s Allston Burr Resident Dean or Resident Dean for Freshmen or his or her designee (e.g., another responsible residential administrator). The clinician will provide no information about a student’s diagnosis of treatment, but only information regarding the student’s location (either in Stillman Infirmary or another medical facility), general medical condition, and prospects for return to residence. Students returning from emergency care or hospitalization ordinarily will be referred by the Allston Burr Resident Dean or Resident Dean for Freshmen to AEO for follow-up to assess the need for services and accommodations.

Rarely, a student may present to HUHS for urgent care who refuses to disclose his or her name for fear of privacy concerns. HUHS will make every effort to assure that student that the confidentiality of any medical records generated by such care will be fully safeguarded. If admission to Stillman is medically indicated but the student refuses to divulge his/her identity, HUHS will be unable to admit that student to Stillman. In such circumstances, the student will be transferred to the local emergency department. Thereafter, the student will need to follow the standard University policy on return to residence.

When a student who has been hospitalized or received emergency treatment decides to leave a medical facility against medical advice, a HUHS clinician may apprise that student’s Allston Burr Resident Dean or Resident Dean for Freshmen or designee of this decision, but only if in the clinicians judgment the student’s decision may pose a significant risk of physical or emotional danger to him or her, to roommates or suite mates, or to members of the residential community. The clinician will inform a College official of the student’s location or decision to leave a facility against medical advice. Depending upon the circumstances, the clinician may inform the College of the student’s risk of further injury or relapse, or possible threat to the student’s own safety or to that of others.

Wheelchair-accessible restrooms are located throughout HUHS at Holyoke Center, and Stillman Infirmary shower and bathroom facilities are fully equipped for patients with limited mobility.

Primary Care Services
Holyoke Center – 3rd floor
Internal Medicine 3 East: 617-495-2001
Internal Medicine 3 North: 617-495-8414
Mon-Fri, 8:00 am –5:30 pm

* summer hours vary

HUHS is committed to providing each student with complete, coordinated health care through a working relationship with an individualized primary care team, comprised of a primary care physician (PCP), a nurse practitioner (NP), registered nurses (RNs), and health assistants. Our teams work closely with students to provide high-quality outpatient healthcare services in a friendly, comfortable atmosphere. These include:

• Physical exams
• Office gynecology (tests, screenings, contraception)
• Evaluation of acute illness and injury
• Continued care of chronic medical conditions
• Immunizations and travel consultations
• Health promotion and disease prevention education
• Referrals to HUHS specialists

Physicians at HUHS are experienced board certified or board-eligible internists or family physicians who provide high-quality preventive and acute care. NPs hold advanced degrees and are board certified in family or adult medicine, and are trained to evaluate and treat many acute and common conditions, write prescriptions, order diagnostic testing and provide preventive care in consultation with the PCP. RNs provide initial assessment for medical problems, help to facilitate appointments and navigate the health care system, provide routine immunizations and offer advice on common health concerns and questions. PCP team members also help to coordinate any necessary specialty services both at HUHS and in the Cambridge/Boston area.

Students are encouraged to choose a primary care team if one has not already been assigned (as with new students) and should consult the HUHS website for a complete listing of primary care clinicians. Clinicians may be changed at any time for any reason. Students with chronic medical conditions are advised to establish a relationship with the primary care team early in the academic year. It will be helpful to provide copies of medical records of health care received at other facilities.

Appointments

Students may schedule routine and non-urgent appointments by calling the PCP team directly during regular business hours. HUHS makes every effort to accommodate any student who wishes to be seen on any given day for a medical concern or illness, and appointments are reserved each day to accommodate urgent medical concerns. Students may also wish to speak with a nurse prior to making an appointment to determine appropriate care and treatment.

Cancellations must be made at least 24 hours in advance of a scheduled appointment by contacting the Primary Care team. HUHS reserves the right to charge for "no-shows."

Students needing to renew prescriptions are advised to call the Primary Care team at least 48 hours in advance to allow time to process the request.

Emergency Services

Any student experiencing symptoms of a medical emergency (e.g., chest pain, severe shortness of breath) should call 911 immediately. After-hours and weekend care for non-routine, urgent medical concerns or symptoms is available through the After Hours Urgent Care Clinic (see below).

Immunizations and Travel Health
617-495-5182

Required Immunizations

Team / triage RNs are available to administer routine immunizations, and students may term bill or pay by cash or credit card for any immunizations required. Complete information regarding required immunizations is available on the HUHS website.

Travel Health Immunizations and Information

HUHS provides immunizations and related services prior to foreign travel, including:

• expert counseling and advice
• review of CDC recommendations for travel

Community Health Initiative

The mission of the Community Health Initiative (CHI) is to promote health and wellness within Harvard University through student-initiated programs and promotions. Community Health Initiative representatives are trained to serve as liaisons between campus resources, such as HUHS, and their residential community. As a student-focused resource, CHI members take proactive, holistic approaches encompassing the physical, social, emotional, intellectual, and environmental dimensions of health. Representatives gauge students’ specific health concerns, respond with information and preventive strategies, advocate for better health options for the students, and refer their peers to myriad campus and community resources. Past initiatives have focused on sleep, nutrition, and stress management, as well as yoga, tai chi, and massage therapy. CHI also has a special interest in education and advocacy regarding healthy relationships, sexual health, alcohol safety, and mental health issues.

Community Health Initiative - First Year (CHI-FY)

At the beginning of each year, first-year students who are interested in helping improve overall well-being for their peers are selected.
