If the VA is paying your tuition and fees, then in most cases, your university health fee is also paid. This means you get many Primary Care and mental health services at no additional cost to you, and you get access to a range of specialty clinics with special savings for military veterans.
The University Health Center (UHC) is a state-of-the-art outpatient facility designed to meet the health care needs of UGA students. UHC is fully accredited by the prestigious Joint Commission as a Primary Care Medical Home. The standard of health care delivery has earned the center its reputation as one of the top college health care facilities nationwide.
