• No. The Health Center is not closed. It is in a ramp-up phase, expanding services to support your health on campus. Updates will be posted on our website as we continue to grow our practice and services.

Telehealth visits powered by HealthBar are available daily from 7 a.m. - 9 p.m.

Call the clinic at (616) 331-2800 and press Option 2 to speak with a nurse.

You can always visit a local urgent care or hospital if needed. A full list of nearby services is available here:  Hospital, Urgent Care, and Emergency Locations

We are in the process of credentialing with major insurance providers and expect to continue accepting the same insurance plans as before the transition. We will post an accepted insurance list once finalized. Please check back for updates on billing capabilities.

In the meantime:

• Students can receive services at the clinic at no cost through the end of 2025.

• If any lab services or additional procedures occur out of the clinic, students may choose to pay out-of-pocket or with their insurance at the time of service.

Ultimately, our goal is to ensure that all students—regardless of their insurance status—can access the care they need. We’re exploring every option to support uninsured, underinsured, and out-of-network students.

We are exploring the feasibility of bringing X-ray services back depending on demand and logistical needs. Updates will be posted on our website as we continue to grow our practice and services.

A GVSU-operated Campus Health Center will be a comprehensive, student-centered clinic that goes far beyond basic care.

Here's what you can expect once things are fully up and running:

Full-Service Primary & Urgent Care

• Same-day visits for minor illnesses and injuries

• Chronic condition management

• Physicals, immunizations, allergy injections, lab work, and potentially X-rays

Integrated Behavioral Health & Wellness

• Coordinated care with mental health services

• Health promotion and education campaigns

• Support navigating care both on and off campus

Specialized Services

• SANE services for survivors of sexual assault

• PrEP/PEP for HIV prevention

• Pharmacy services (on-site or nearby, depending on final partnership model)

• LGBTQ+ affirming care, reproductive and sexual health, and more

Care Management & Navigation

• Help understanding your insurance, referrals, and next steps

• Personalized care coordination, especially for students with ongoing needs

• Screening and case management for Social Determinants of Health (housing, food insecurity, etc.)

Connected to the Community

• Partnerships with Health Net of West Michigan and Ottawa County Pathways

• Expanded access to public health resources and support services

Affordable & Accessible

• Sliding scale options

• Voluntary prepaid health fee to reduce financial barriers

In short, the new clinic will be a modern, student-focused health hub — not just a place to go when you’re sick, but a center that supports your total well-being.
