How to use the Mt. SAC Health Center and Your Health Insurance

There are several ways for you to seek medical attention as an F-1 student. Sometimes, you may need minor medical attention on-campus (such as needing a bandage for a small cut) or more urgent attention from a medical professional. For each medical circumstance, there is an appropriate way to seek medical attention that is more efficient and cost you zero or small out-of-pocket expenses. While on-campus, you may use the Mt. SAC Health Center for minor or less urgent matters. The Mt. SAC Health Center is available to all students enrolled in at least 1 credit course, which includes F-1 students. For more urgent matters, you may need a physician, specialist, urgent or emergency care, or mental health services. Mental health services are provided at Mt. SAC and off-campus through your LewerMark insurance plan.

Please refer to this Mt. SAC Medical Flow Chart to determine the best course of action for your medical needs. If you need further assistance, please contact the International Student Program (ISP) at F1visa@mtsac.edu or 909-274-4705. The ISP Virtual Front Desk is also available Monday-Friday from 8:00am-4:30pm.
