MEDICAL FEE

A small medical fee of 40 cents will be charged each person who
registers in the Summer School, which will entitle him or her to free
medical attendance by Dr. W. E. Bray, the Summer School Physician,
and application is pending for greatly reduced charges, if it
should be necessary, at the University Hospital, under the following
regulations:

Medical Attendance.—Any student who is temporarily ill from
causes not due to his own misconduct, is entitled, without charge,
to all necessary medical advice from the Summer School Physician;
and, if necessary, to nursing in the University Hospital at a reasonable
charge for the maintenance while there. This exemption from
charge does not apply to cases requiring surgical operation, and for
special treatment of the eye, ear, nose, and throat, or to constitutional
disorders from which the student in question was suffering at
the time of his coming to the University. Nor is the University responsible
for the expense incurred through the employment of private
nurses, necessitated by severe illness of students, or through the
maintenance of quarantine precautions in contagious cases. Any student
sent to the University Hospital by the advice and under the
care of a physician other than the Summer School Physician will be
required to pay the regular hospital charges for private patients.
