Medical and RX Insurance

The Wilce Student Health Center is contracted with most major commercial insurance plans. We recommend that you contact your insurance provider to verify if the health center and the pharmacy are in network. Follow these steps to verify coverage with your insurance provider.

  • Call your insurance provider to verify that OSU Student Health Services is a contracted provider with your insurance plan.
  • Provide them with the following information:

                OSU Student Health Services
                Tax ID #: 31-6025986
                Facility NPI #: 1942274410
                Pharmacy NPI #: 1952347445

  • Upload both your medical and RX insurance cards to My BuckMD

                   Log In at My BuckMD
                   Click on “Document Uploads”

  • Patients should bring their insurance card to each visit (physical card or image of the front and back of the card)
  • If the Student Health Benefits Plan was purchased or Wilce Care suppliment was purchased, no card is needed

Even if you have health insurance, Student Life Student Health Services (SLSHS) may be considered out of network, as insurance carriers often offer multiple plan types with varying provider networks. SLSHS is out of network for all HMO plans. Please contact your insurance company to verify your network status and coverage details.

SLSHS is also out of network for certain insurance carriers, Medicare, and Medicaid plans, with the exception of CareSource Ohio Medicaid. We encourage you to contact your insurance provider to review any available out-of-network benefits before receiving services.

To help your insurance company accurately identify Student Life Student Health Services, provide our Tax Identification Number (TIN): 31-6025986. This can help distinguish SLSHS from other physician groups and medical facilities affiliated with The Ohio State University and ensure you receive the most accurate benefit information.

If insurance payment is not received within 60 days of the date of service, the outstanding balance becomes the patient's responsibility. Regardless of insurance coverage or claim status, patients are ultimately responsible for any unpaid charges.
