Students aged 17 to 35 will be eligible for this health insurance facility. Students will have the opportunity to receive primary medical care from the Medical Center.

Students are happy with the launch of the Medical Center on campus. Campus Public Relations Officer Afzal Hossain Sarkar said, "A few days ago, due to weakness, one of our students suddenly fell unconscious on campus, and we tried to provide primary treatment. Then we realized how important it is to have a Medical Center on campus. We are also happy with the inauguration of the Medical Center."

The authorities have stated that this facility will be available for all CUB staff and faculty members in the future.
