Convenience clinics are an easy and inexpensive way to access healthcare for minor, acute needs. If you have an earache, a sore throat or another minor concern, check out a nearby convenience clinic. With no appointments, it's a simple, hassle-free way to take care of your health. Plus, an eligible convenience office visit only costs you a $5 copay on the Graduate Assistant Health Plan and Dependent Plan 1 or a $15 copay on Dependent Plan 2.
