FAQs
A School-Based Health Center is a healthcare clinic located in the school that provides medical and behavioral health services to School-Based Health registered students.
The School-Based Health Center provider supplements the care that your student’s PCP provides and shares medical information (such as any updated vaccines, any prescriptions given, or a copy of the physical examination for school or camp)
Eligibility & Fees
The School-Based Health Center bills and collects insurance payments for services received; however, there are no out-of-pocket costs to the student or family receiving services.
If you do not have insurance, you can still receive School-Based Health Center services (and if you qualify for insurance, we will help you obtain HUSKY).
I have been attending CFA’s School-Based Health Center at Grasso Technical High School since the beginning of the school year, and it has generally improved my quality of life… It has helped improve my relationship with my grandmother… and I have been taught better coping skills! Thank you, School-Based!
