MTSU faculty, staff, and students who are covered by the State of TN Employee Health Insurance program and have CVS/CareMark as their prescription benefit plan may use this benefit to pay for their Flu Shot or FluMist. Flu shots are available at Health Services. You will need to bring your CVS/CareMark card. The CVS/Caremark prescription card will pay for the full cost of the flu shot.
Health Services is conveniently located in the Health, Wellness, and Recreation Center. The full-time professional staff consists of board-certified physicians, certified physician assistants, certified nurse practitioners and RNs; all of whom maintain certification in either ACLS or BCLS. A prepaid student health fee covers the cost of basic office visits. There may be additional charges for other professional services such as laboratory tests, medications, injections, suturings, and EKGs. Payment of these fees is expected at the time of service and may be paid by cash, check, American Express, MasterCard or Visa.

Need Us After We Have Closed?
An after hours telephone advice nurse is available by calling 615-898-2988 and following
the prompts. Experienced advice nurses can help you figure out the best course of
action: do you need immediate medical care, an appointment the next day, or will self-care
help you? You may be asked for your student M number in order to use this service.
Important Note: The after-hours service is for those who are sick. If you have a routine or minor health concern or question, you should continue to call us during the day or leave a message to be answered the next business day.
