Health Services recognizes that students may not be well enough to attend every class. Students are advised to contact their professors directly (preferably before missing a class) to make arrangements to accommodate their illness. Health Services cannot attest to past illnesses. Therefore, Health Services will not provide any documentation to excuse students from attending classes.
Health Services does not fill prescriptions. Prescriptions that need to be filled, may be taken to any of the local pharmacies. Be sure to check with your insurance to see if there is a co-pay for medications and bring a copy of your insurance card with you to the pharmacy.

Massachusetts college students are required to have primary health insurance.
Bring your health insurance card with you each time you come to Health Services. If you’re covered under your parents’ insurance, ask them for a copy of the card.
MCLA Health Services does not bill for services that are provided on site. Although, any medical tests such as: laboratory, radiological imaging and prescriptions performed or obtained off-site will be billed directly to the student's health insurance. This may result in a copay, deductible or balance due that is the student's responsibility. Health Services is not able to advise students regarding what may or may not be covered by their individual plan.
