Health,
medical & well being
The university is committed to providing our students with the best possible health and support services throughout their time with us in Austin.
All students enjoy membership to One Medical, a membership-based primary care practice that offers accessible, high-quality healthcare through a combination of in-person office visits and 24/7 virtual care.
Students are able to book appointments and connect with providers through a mobile app as well as the in-person clinic which is located just a 3 minute walk from our campus. One Medical is known for its focus on providing convenient and seamless access to healthcare needs, including preventive care, chronic condition management, and mental health services.

OneMedical Plan Overview
This is a required annual, monthly membership plan for all UATX students which consists of on-demand "holistic" primary care. This includes access to a local, in-person clinic, just a short, 3 minute walk from the University’s campus. Think of this as our version of the “on-campus” health office. This is different from the University’s health insurance policy.
With OneMedical, students can expect same day/next-day appointments, within the clinic’s business hours (M-F 8am-5pm, and until 4pm on Mondays), as well as around-the-clock access to their online app.
Virtual Care is their most popular, and it offers essentially two types of care: on-demand/urgent and virtual primary care, all with no claims and no co-pays; totally complementary with the monthly membership. Students will be able to ask quick questions, around the clock in the app without needing an appointment, and virtual care medical providers will be able to write prescriptions where necessary.
For more substantial health care requirements, OneMedical providers (in person and online) will write referrals and can help direct students when to go to Urgent Care or other facilities. They also have a partnership with a local specialist health system, Ascension, to help coordinate referrals and centralize health records across a wide variety of specialists. These features are all included with the monthly membership, along with other App features and support.
OneMedical accepts all major healthcare plans other than Kaiser Permanente and will provide membership onboarding for students before the start of school.
