A current McMaster University student card is required to be seen for medical/nursing/counselling services. A student must also have a valid provincial or territorial health card, or a UHIP card (University Health Insurance Plan – for international students). International students without a UHIP card must provide proof of coverage with a pre-approved insurance plan from the ISS (International Student Services) Office.
