Ohio University’s WellBeing Plan

What is the WellBeing Plan?

In response to student concerns about campus health care, the WellBeing Plan was created as a student health care option to enhance health and counseling services.It works together with your student’s medical insurance to reduce the costs of health services on campus. Your student is automatically enrolled at the beginning of each quarter and it’s only $40/quarter.

How Does the WellBeing Plan Help My Student?

Student Health Services

The WellBeing Plan eliminates $15 of the co-pay/co-insurance for medical office visits, lab work and x-rays. If your student DOES NOT have the WellBeing Plan, the normal co-pay will be billed for medical office visits, lab work and x-rays to their student account.

Counseling and Psychological Services

A student paying the WellBeing fee is entitled to FREE individual counseling sessions per year  (up to 20 sessions) and FREE group counseling.  If your student DOES NOT pay the WellBeing fee, $20 will be billed for each individual counseling session (the initial visit is always free), and $50 per quarter for group counseling.

How is the WellBeing Plan Helping ALL Students?

Funds generated from WellBeing are supporting these enhancements to the Student Health and Counseling and Psychological Services Departments:

• Extended hours of service on Monday and Tuesday and NEW Sunday hours
