Health Insurance

Clinic Payment

For service at the campus Health Centre:

Canadian citizens must present a valid provincial health card.
Eligible international students can print their Acadia Students' Union medical card at www.studentbenefits.ca. You can also use your mobile phone to take a photo of your card so you always have it with you.
Always keep your local address up-to-date at central.acadiau.ca

Paying with Other Coverage

Full-time Acadia University students are automatically enrolled in Health and Dental plans unless they opt-out of the coverage.

If you do not have a provincial health card and you have opted out of the student health plan, you will need to pay the doctor directly in cash. You will receive a receipt so that you can seek reimbursement from your private insurance provider.

Prescription Payment

Pharmacy cards for eligible Canadian and International students can also be printed at www.studentbenefits.ca

You will present this card at a pharmacy when you pick up your prescription. Your student insurance plan will help to significantly reduce the cost of most prescriptions.
