2024-25 WilceCare Supplement

Overview

WilceCare is a pre-paid access to treatment for illness and injury provided exclusively by a Student Health Services provider at the Wilce Student Health Center during their hours of operation.

WilceCare is not health insurance - it is an option to supplement other annual health insurance.

2024-25 WilceCare pays up to $2,000 per coverage period for covered medical expenses, including x-rays, laboratory tests, physical therapy, minor office procedures, and office visits for the treatment of illness or injury.

    • Services must be ordered and provided by a Student Health Services provider at the Wilce Student Health Center.

2024-25 WilceCare pays up to $225 per coverage period for prescription medications. Medications are subject to a 10% cost share for generic drugs, 20% for brand name drugs with no generic available, and 50% for brand name drugs with generic available. Each eligible prescription is also subject to a minimum $10 payment.

    • Medications must be ordered by a Student Health Services provider and dispensed at the Wilce Student Health Center Pharmacy.

Enrollment

Students select the WilceCare Supplement through My Buckeye Link as part of the annual Student Health Insurance Select/Waive process. A WilceCare selection necessitates a concurrent waiver, and students must submit proof of their annual health insurance. WilceCare selection must be completed by the published Select/Waive deadline for the student’s first Academic Term of enrollment each academic year (typically autumn). Students who miss  the deadline will not be permitted to enroll in WilceCare until the beginning of the next eligible effective period. 

The fee for WilceCare is $250, regardless of when it is purchased. The fee must be paid in full by the payment deadline established by the university for the first academic term in which WilceCare is purchased. Payment must be made to the Bursar. 

Requests to terminate a WilceCare selection will not be accepted, and no refunds will be issued. 

You will not get an ID card for WilceCare. Staff at Wilce Student Health Center will confirm your purchase of WilceCare using your BuckID information.
