    Services and Pricing

    Student Health Services supports the basic health needs of the students of UNG and teaches prevention and self-help skills to students. 

    A health professional will assess, evaluate, and treat students for minor illness and injury as well as general health maintenance. If after evaluating the student a provider feels an additional evaluation or treatment is required, the student will be referred to a local physician, hospital, or their private physician.
