Medical Clinic
Pre-Travel Consults
If you are studying/traveling abroad you should consider making an appointment with one of the Medical Clinic providers to discuss various pre-travel vaccinations and health care concerns.
- Schedule your pre-travel exam at least 4-6 weeks before departure (to allow appropriate timing of vaccinations). Call 320-308-3191 or go to myhealthservices.stcloudstate.edu to schedule an appointment.
- When you have scheduled your appointment, go to myhealthservices.stcloudstate.edu and complete the questionnaire associated with your appointment.
- Check out the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) website for information/requirements for your destinations at http://www.cdc.gov/travel/ so you can educate yourself about possible health concerns/alerts. Print this out and bring it to your appointment.
- Bring the following information with you to your appointment
-
- CDC information (from #3 above)
- Immunization Records
- Itinerary and activities
- List of current medications, if any
Note: We would advise you to contact your insurance carrier (contact the “customer service” phone number provided on the back of your insurance card) to inquire about coverage of vaccinations and visit.
