About the Health Center
We work closely with our colleagues in the Counseling Center on the second floor in an effort to treat the whole student. The health center is committed to providing high quality, compassionate care to students.
Services
During clinic hours, medical and nursing care is provided. Students are seen by appointment only. Any emergencies should call 315-859-4000 to have HCEMS dispatched. There is no fee for evaluation by the staff. However, students will incur charges for medication and in-house labs. Students are responsible for charges incurred by referrals to specialists, hospital emergency rooms and outside labs.
Privacy & Records
Student’s privacy is of the utmost concern to us when a student receives services at the health center. Records created and maintained by this department are considered student treatment records and the student’s privacy of such information is governed by federal and state laws. Unless specifically authorized by law or required by court order, private medical or counseling information and student treatment records will not be shared or released without the consent of the student.
Health Insurance
Hamilton College requires that all enrolled students carry valid health insurance coverage. All students who are U.S. citizens or permanent residents of the U.S. and do not complete the online waiver are automatically enrolled in the Hamilton College Student Health Insurance Plan. If you have comparable existing health insurance coverage and DO NOT wish to purchase the Hamilton College coverage, you must submit an online waiver and present evidence of your own health insurance coverage.
Health Matters
The Health Center is piloting a series of campus talks around health and wellness that are aimed to promote open dialogue between students and healthcare professionals on meaningful topics being faced by students. The full series will span the entire academic year, with three sessions in the fall and three more in the spring. Led by Dr. Jeffrey Bailey DNP, FNP-BC, all students are invited to attend the Health Matters conversation series. Participants in each event will be entered to win a raffle drawing at the end of each semester.
