Two forms of medical assistance are available to enrolled students.
The Medical Service Plan is the result of an agreement between UTPB and the West Texas Wellness Clinic in Odessa. Students pay an $10.00 co-pay for an office visit. Emergency room treatment and ambulance fees are not covered by the Medical Service Plan. Get a Medical Services Plan booklet for more details. This program is funded through the Medical Service Fee.
A totally separate program is the optional Student Health Insurance Plan* from the University of Texas System. Students will need to pay an additional premium for this health insurance plan, but the insurance plan covers more medical treatments and family members can be added. For specific information on coverage provided, see the booklet available in the P.A.S.S. Office or at the Student Union.
The main provider for the Medical Service Plan is:
West Texas Wellness Clinic
601 East 7th
Odessa, Tx 79762
