How to use University Health Service (UHS):

  • U-M summer program participants ages 10 and older are eligible to use UHS.
  • For some services, UHS will bill eligible insurance. For other services or products (for example, medications), campers must pay at time of service.
  • Program staff must accompany the minor to UHS.
  • Bring the participants’ insurance information, credit card authorization, parent/ guardian’s consent for treatment, medical history form and medical follow-up report.

For urgent medical needs (e.g. infection, high/persistent fever, pain, injury, dehydration, etc.):

  • Call whenever possible, because our nurses may be able to provide medical advice by phone that could save a trip to UHS or the emergency room
  • When UHS is open, call 734-764-8320, or you can go to UHS
  • When UHS is closed, call 866-204-1082 for advice about self-care or seeking care
