“The system runs in real time
as long as there is interaction on
the Web site ” Klinkenberg said.
Online appointment reserva
tions, he said, will be available
in about six months to a year.
The health services fee at
A&M is $55 a semester, which
entitles students to unlimited
clinic visits.
Klinkenberg said the fee is
the second lowest among the Big
12 schools behind Oklahoma
and Oklahoma State, which
charge students $54 a semester.
Scott Draper, assistant direc
tor for Student Health Services,
said it’s beneficial for students
to use the health center.
“If you visit your family
physician, there is an insurance
co-pay,” Draper said. “Here
there’s no co-pay.”
Beyond clinic visits, students
are responsible for paying for X-
rays, lab tests, physical therapy and
prescriptions from the pharmacy.
Draper said a lot of the costs
may be covered by student’s
personal health insurance.
“We give students the equiva
lent of a billing form to turn in to
their insurance provider,” he said.
The services that the center
charges extra for. Draper said,
are equal to or below what other
health care providers charge.
“You are not required to use our
services, but shop around,” he said.
Klinkenberg said they don’t
want to replace a student’s fam
ily physician.

“We just want to be a viable,
convenient choice for students,"
he said.
Another change at Beutel is
the addition of a pharmacy at the
front entrance.
Jyane Pearson, yhief pharma
cist at Beutel. said she hopes the
new pharmacy will be open by
mid-March.
“It’ll be nice to get out of the
basement,” she said.
The new pharmacy will be
large enough to store all the
drugs and useful documents they
need in one area, Pearson said.
“The main benefit of the
new pharmacy is increased vis
ibility and accessibility for stu
dents,” she said.
Klinkenberg said besides pri

Health Services’ main focus is to

care issues. ■Som
