Helping You Stay Healthy

Good health means much more than just the absence of illness. Improving and maintaining your health can profoundly impact your quality of life. The UMD Employee Health and Wellness Center was created to help UPlan members and their dependents become more healthy.

The Employee Health and Wellness Center offers a variety of services to help you obtain and maintain good health:

• QuickCare Clinic - No appointment necessary
• Medication Therapy Management Clinic - Appointment required
• Health Coaching - Appointment required

Services are low-cost or free to eligible UPlan members.

QuickCare, MTM, and Health Coaching are available to all individuals who are in the UPlan Employee Medical Program. This includes active employees, early retirees, disabled participants, and spouses, who are participants in any one of the following plans:

None of the programs are available for retirees who are on the +65 programs that coordinate with Medicare coverage.

QuickCare Clinic

QuickCare is a clinic for UMD employees, spouses/same-sex domestic partners, and dependent children. An experienced nurse practitioner provides basic services such as treating ear pain and strep, to immunizations. No appointment is needed.
