If your insurance is NOT accepted, you may be required to pay out-of-pocket costs to be seen that can range from $100 - 250*. Some NYC-based plans (MetroPlus, HealthFirst, etc.) and out-of-state Medicaid plans may be denied. Check the back of your insurance card for details on submitting a claim after your visit.

Transportation

Students can call 716-839-7233 [SAFE] or stop by Campus Safety (Yurtchuk Lobby) for assistance with transportation to urgent care.

Student Support

If a student has medical documentation noting they will be physically out of classes, they are encouraged to submit a care report at daemen.edu/concern. For additional information, please review the section below: Medical Documentation & Academic Support. 

*Hours and costs listed are subject to change. Please visit the urgent care website and/or call the location(s) to confirm.

Students that need to be out of classes for 3 or more days for medical or mental health reasons should contact the CHIP Center team at 716-839-7380 or email health@daemen.edu, and/or submit a CARE report at daemen.edu/concern to put formal support in place. 

The CHIP Center team will need a copy of documentation from the provider(s) with the length of time the student needs to be out of classes*, a list of restrictions (if applicable, including but not limited to things that will impact their physical, mental or academic engagement) and any other information that would be helpful to support the student. 

• A copy of medical documentation can be submitted online to  or faxed to 716-839-8230. Students are encouraged to keep an original copy for their records. 
• A copy of medical documentation can also be submitted through the CARE report system if the student decides to use that resource for reporting. 

Academic Support & Engagement 

Once appropriate documentation is received, a prolonged absence notice (formal letter) will be sent from the Registrar's office to the student and their registered academic instructors. The letter will note that the student is out of classes for a medical reason through a specified date (if known) and the student's ability to participate (virtually, not at all, etc.). 

In addition to the prolonged absence notice, students are responsible for contacting their instructors, engaging in their classes, and maintaining communication with the instructors and the CHIP Center should their status change.

Students with an acute illness or injury may have the right to additional academic support and accommodations. Please contact Debbie Dimitrovski, Director of Accessibility Services at 716-839-8583 or ddimitro@daemen.edu for more information. Important note: accommodations cannot be provided retroactively. We strongly encourage students who may be in need of accommodations to connect with Accessibility services ASAP.

*If a student needs to be out of classes for a length of time that exceeds 2 weeks, the student should contact the Student Success Center to discuss options for academic support beyond a prolonged absence notice.
