What is a school-based health clinic?
A school-based health clinic works to improve the health of students, increase access to health care and decrease the time lost from school. The clinic provides an optimal setting to foster learning readiness and academic achievement while helping to meet the health care needs of children.
-
Is this a free clinic? What does it cost?
The clinic bills private insurance and Medicaid for eligible students, staff, and retirees. Although this is not a free clinic, it is in network with most Kansas City area insurance plans.
If you have a co-pay, it is the office visit listed on your card. If you have a co-insurance, follow your plan's guidelines for out of pocket cost. Your visit will be considered a regular primary care clinic visit, not an urgent care visit.

How do we make an appointment? Are walk-ins welcome?

-
Will my child's medical information be kept confidential?
YES. Under HIPAA, the health information of your child is private and is not accessible to anyone unless you have designated a person to receive this information.
Your child's health information will be treated with strict confidentiality. By signing the consent form, you may give the health clinic staff and school nurses permission to communicate and share medical information regarding your child's medical condition on an as-needed basis with the understanding this information will continue to be treated in a confidential manner. Otherwise, it is your responsibility to notify the school of any medication, allergies, or medical problems that may affect your child during school.
-
Will signing up mean that we can't use our family doctor?
If we have a family doctor, do we need these services?
The clinic is not meant to replace your child's provider. However, if you have a provider, you may still use the school services. You may find it convenient for your child to receive care if they get sick or injured at school, participate in screenings, or to receive other services. It can provide additional services to help children avoid missing school and to help you, as a parent/guardian, manage your child's care.
-
Can I choose whether my child will receive services?
If so, can I select which services my child may use?
YES. The clinic will always contact you prior to any treatment your child receives to obtain your permission. Parents are always encouraged to contact the staff with questions or concerns and to be present during their child's healthcare visit.
