Welcome to the EIU Health and Counseling Services
SBL - EIU Student Medical Clinic
The mission of Health and Counseling Services is to address health and wellness needs which impact the ability of our students to be successful in and out of the classroom through a variety of individual, interpersonal, population, and environmental methods and strategies which focus on health promotion, prevention, consultation, intervention, treatment, aftercare, and recovery.
The EIU Medical Clinic operations are contracted to Sarah Bush Lincoln Health Systems. Students enrolled in on-campus academic programs are assessed an a Health and Counseling Services Fee based on the number of semester hours they are taking each semester, allowing them access to the clinic, and the majority of clinic services without a co-pay or door fee. Some supplemental charges, as labs, x-rays, durable medical equipment and co-pays for psychiatric care, women's health, men's health, immunizations, etc. are billed directly to the student's account.
Although managed by Sarah Bush Lincoln Health Systems, the SBL-EIU Medical Clinic does not bill for any 3rd party insurance. Any charges incurred re billed directly to the student's EIU Account. Students may request a walkout/billing statement that they may submit to thier 3rd party insurance for reimbursement. EIU Student Insurance does not provide coverage for services rendered at the SBL-EIU Medical Clinic.
