Using Sindecuse

Eligibility

All students enrolled at Western Michigan University, Kalamazoo College, Kalamazoo Valley Community College and Davenport College are eligible to receive health care services at Sindecuse Health Center. In addition, spouses of WMU students and their children 12 years of age or older may access our many professional services. Campus visitors and camp participants are also welcome for acute care needs.

All Western Michigan University employees, spouses and dependents 12 years and older are eligible to use our cost-effective and convenient services for acute care and preventative visits, regardless of eligibility status for other University employee benefits. Faculty and staff are expected to have a primary care provider to whom results can be sent. In addition, they may use our comprehensive pharmacy, sports medicine and physical therapy services. All services are offered on a fee-for-service basis at a cost savings to faculty and staff and to the University.

Western Michigan University students enrolled in five or more non-exempt credit hours for Fall/Spring Semester (four or more credits during Summer I / Summer II Session) are automatically assessed a Student Health Fee as part of the University's Enrollment Fee.

Western Michigan University students enrolled for fewer credit hours, students from Kalamazoo College, Kalamazoo Valley Community College, Ferris State University pharmacy residents and Davenport College, eligible spouses and children may buy-in on their first professional visit to the Health Center each semester or session or opt to pay non-member rates. Health care coverage runs from the first day of classes of one semester or session to the first day of classes the following semester or session.
