Student health services
LiveHealth Online app
To make accessing quality health care services even easier, all SCAD students are enrolled in the LiveHealth Online app. LiveHealth Online connects you to licensed, board-certified physicians who can help with the diagnosis and treatment of a wide array of minor illnesses such as sinus infections, cold and flu, UTIs, pink eye, and more from anywhere in the world. Get doctor access 24/7 with no scheduling, no travel, no waiting rooms, no hassle, and no cost to you.
LiveHealth Online also provides access to appointment-based mental health counseling. Choose a therapist, pick a time that is convenient for you (seven days a week), and then talk to the therapist from the privacy of home or anywhere you feel comfortable.
Download the LiveHealth Online app, available free wherever you get your apps. F-1 international students can use LiveHealth Online through Sydney, the comprehensive healthcare app that comes with your Anthem international student insurance plan.
