Student Health Services does not directly bill any insurance company, including SHIP. Itemized receipts that can be submitted to an insurance carrier are available to students through their online health portal under “Walkout Statements”. Students are responsible for payment for all clinic charges at the time of service or may make payments directly to SHS within 15 days. After 15 days, charges are transferred to Student Accounts at their college.
The flu vaccine is required for Pomona and Scripps students and highly recommended for all other students. We accept documentation of Flu vaccines obtained locally at pharmacies or from home care providers. If you receive your flu shot outside of SHS or on-campus flu clinics, please upload a copy of the record to your online health portal here: shshealthportal.cuc.claremont.edu
Local pharmacies may be a cost-effective choice for students with private insurance, as pharmacies will often offer insurance billing. Please check with your insurance to find out which pharmacies are in-network. Flu Vaccine Clinics are offered with local pharmacies that can bill insurance directly while offering vaccination on campus.

Following the California Department of Public Health recommendations, the COVID-19 vaccine is being offered to all patients ages 6 months and older. The COVID-19 vaccine is available at Student Health Services (SHS) and is free to those students with the Student Health Insurance Plan (SHIP).
We advise anyone with a private insurance plan to contact their members services to verify their COVID-19 vaccine coverage. Those with private insurance plans may be responsible for an out-of-pocket cost of $150 for the COVID-19 vaccine when received here at SHS. SHS is unable to determine if your private plan will cover the vaccine, so please check with your insurance carrier prior to scheduling an appointment.
Vaccine appointments can be scheduled through our web-booking service using our online portal here.
Although you may be able to receive the COVID-19 vaccine at a local pharmacy, our recommendation is to first reach out to your insurance carrier to determine eligibility and to identify which pharmacy is in your network.
