Your provider choices can help you save money. Use our Find a Provider page.

When seeking care, you will save the most at Ohio State Columbus-campus locations, which we call our Tier One providers:

• Wilce Student Health Center – Medical, Dental, Vision Services
• Counseling and Consultation Service – Mental Health Services
• College of Optometry Clinics - Vision Services
• College of Dentistry Student Clinics – Dental Services

If those are not available, try the next level called Tier Two (“Preferred”) providers:

• OSU Health Plan Network (inside Franklin County)
• UnitedHealthcare Options PPO and United Behavioral Health Networks (outside Franklin County)

Seeing providers who are not Tier One or Tier Two will likely result in much higher out-of-pocket costs.

For adult dental, your network locations are Delta Dental PPO/Delta Dental Premier Networks.

Your prescription benefit follows a Prescription Drug List (PDL).   

• A Prescription Drug List is a list of covered medications organized by how they will be paid.
• To fill a prescription, you can use the Wilce Student Health Center Pharmacy or any retail pharmacy in the OptumRx Network. 
• Specialty medications must be filled by OptumRx Specialty Pharmacy and cannot be filled at the Student Health Center or other pharmacy locations.  Sign into your UHCSR MyAccount, go to prescriptions to manage your prescriptions or call OptumRx Specialty at 1-855-427-4682.   

2024 OptumRx Prescription Drug List  – Effective August 13, 2024. 

2025 OptumRx Prescription Drug List  – Effective January 1, 2025. 

For assistance with the Prescription Drug List, contact United Healthcare Student Resources at 1-833-789-9300. 

For the 2024-25 policy year, UHCSR will be partnering with HealthiestYou, a Teladoc company, to provide you with free, unlimited access to virtual counseling services.  The HealthiestYou service gives you free access to board-certified psychiatrists, psychologists, therapists, and counselors as long as you’re covered under a UHCSR insurance plan. After completing your registration, you’ll choose your provider based on your preferences and needs.  Appointments can be scheduled 7 days a week by phone or video.

UHCSR provides primary coverage for members under 19 years of age, and Delta Dental of Ohio provides secondary coverage. Dental providers can seek reimbursement payments from both UHCSR and Delta Dental, which can in turn reduce your financial responsibility. 

• How it works if you're under 19:
• You need to make sure you utilize a dental provider who is part of the Delta Dental Premier and PPO Networks, or at Student Health Services and College of Dentistry Student Clinic. 
• At your appointment, show them both your UHCSR and Delta Dental Member ID cards. Ask the provider to submit claims first to UHCSR (via the information on the back of your UHCSR card) and next to Delta Dental.
