Therapeutic Injections
Campus Health provides a convenient location for the continuation of your injectable therapies while you attend NC State University. If you get regular therapeutic medication injections from a medical provider, under most circumstances, you can transfer your therapeutic medication injections to Campus Health to ensure that your current treatment plan is continued. Your prescribing medical provider will continue to manage your care and Campus Health will serve as a temporary extension of your provider’s office while you are attending NC State University. You must provide documentation (outside records) from your current prescribing provider prior to scheduling an initial appointment. This initial appointment will establish care with a Campus Health provider.
Note: Campus Health does not provide routine allergy injections (allergen immunotherapy), however there are multiple specialty practices local to the Raleigh area that provide this service.
Prior to Your Initial Visit
- Complete your Health History Form (found on the HealthyPack Portal).
- Complete the Authorization to Release Protected Health Information Form allowing our office to communicate with your current medical provider.
- Upload the following documentation through the HealthyPack Portal or your provider may fax documents to 888-972-4158. Your medical provider may use our Therapeutic Injection Initation Form or provide other formal documentation that includes all of the following information::
- Your diagnosis
- The name of the medication, the strength/dose, frequency, and route of administration
- Directions pertaining to an early and/or late dosing schedule, if applicable
- Recommendations for having epinephrine autoinjectors available
- History of any adverse reaction to a prior dose of this medication (if so, please provide additional documentation or information describing the reaction)?
- Observation time required after administration of the medication, if applicable
- When medication was last administered
- Other relevant patient history regarding your diagnosis and/or treatment plan
- Outside physician information (name and contact information)
- After you have submitted all the required information, it will be reviewed by members of the Campus Health clinical team, and you will then receive a secure message in your HealthPack Portal with instructions on how to schedule your Initial Therapeutic Injection Consultation with a Campus Health medical provider.
- Once you have completed the Initial Therapeutic Injection Consultation, you will then be able to schedule your appointment for medication administration with our nursing staff in the Campus Health Treatment Clinic – please note that the injection appointment will likely not occur on the same date as your consultation appointment.
What To Bring To Your Initial Injection Visit
- Your medication, clearly labeled with your name and date of birth
- You are responsible for storing the medication as directed by the manufacturer and removing it from refrigeration if applicable. Campus Health does not store any medications for patients.
- If you need additional storage space for your medication, you will need to communicate with University Housing and the University Disability Resources Office.
- Your epinephrine autoinjector (if required) — make sure it is not expired
Fees for Injections
There are fees associated with your injections. Prior to your first appointment, please contact your health insurance provider to discuss your coverage and fees. It is the student’s responsibility to confirm that Campus Health has their current insurance information on file. Charges will be submitted to insurance, and any charges not covered by insurance are the responsibility of the student.
