Appointments "I
am always able to get an appointment in a timely manner…
I choose UHCS over any other place every time." UWW student
"I was very thankful this exists. I do not have insurance so it helps to be able to have a place to go where many things are free and what’s not is cheaper. The healthcare providers are all very nice and willing to help." UWW student

Tests ordered by the provider are done either in-house or sent to a reference (outside) laboratory. There is a fee (often less than $10.00) for each test done in the UHCS laboratory. Fees for tests sent to reference laboratories are determined by the reference lab.
Antibiotics and other medications are available at UHCS when ordered through a provider. The average cost of medications is about $10.00, however costs vary depending on what is prescribed.
