Campus Health Services (CHS) offers quality medical care to the UNC student community at a very low cost.
CHS offers wellness and preventative care, care for injury, acute or chronic medical conditions, consultation, and medical testing. To promote quality care we are assigning every student their own Primary Care Provider. If at all possible, you will see the same provider every time you come to the clinic. You may request to change your Primary Care Provider at any time, as you become better acquainted with our staff. We also refer patients to the UNC Hospitals if more intensive care is needed. Students may receive health care from CHS as a part of their student fees. Please review the information on Charges & Payment in the Fees section for a more comprehensive listing of services covered under the student fees. We also highly recommend that students have medical insurance. If you do not have medical insurance or have concerns regarding the coverage of your current policy, Campus Health endorses a comprehensive low-cost student insurance plan called Student Blue. This plan is underwritten by Blue Cross and Blue Shield of North Carolina. Visit www.bcbsnc.com/UNC for more information. CHS also offers a variety of specialty services such as:
- Acute Care/Extended Services
- Allergy Injections

- Immunizations
- International Travel Clinic
- Laboratory
- Men’s Health

Some of these specialty services will require a referral from physician seen in Clinics I, I, or III as well as additional charge. Please review the information pertinent to these services.
We have a full-service Pharmacy that handles prescriptions written by CHS physicians as well as most over-the-counter medications. Pharmacists are available for counseling about any medications dispensed at CHS. Most insurance cards are accepted.
CHS has a laboratory and a radiology department available to assist CHS physicians in further diagnosing and treating medical conditions. There are additional charges for these services. |
