Annually, CH has more than 80,000 patient encounters, which includes Primary Care and Women’s Health as well as specialty clinics in sports medicine, orthopedics, gynecology, physical therapy, counseling and psychological services, travel clinic and allergy clinic.

Campus Health has been continuously accredited since 1986 by the Joint Commission of Accreditation of Health Care Organizations. All personnel are trained in the concepts and principles of Performance Improvement and serve as team members and leaders in shaping and defining the organization as it strives to provide quality and safe care.

Campus Health collaborates with Student Wellness and Campus Recreation and other Student Affairs partners to provide education and outreach to assist in keeping the campus population healthy.

Education and research comprise another important function of CH. CH provides clinical rotations and practicums for students in the School of Education, Medicine, Nursing, Pharmacy, Social Work and Public Health, Department of Medical Technology, Physical Therapy, Occupational Health and Radiology. In addition, CH serves as a research site for a number of faculty and graduate student grants and contracts, where CH staff participates with the principal investigators across a variety of medical specialties.

The Patient Relations Representative functions primarily as a receptionist responsible for central check-in and appointment scheduling for the CH clinic, General Medicine Clinics, the Women’s Health Clinic, Nutrition, Central Appointments, Same Day Care (which includes Allergy Injections, Immunizations, Travel Medicine, and Triage), and the Carolina Vaccination Clinic and the future minute clinic operation at Student Stores.

The Patient Relations Representative obtains and enters detailed demographic and insurance information from new patients and updated information from returning patients into the electronic health record and necessary immunization registries thus ensuring accuracy in medical record keeping and procedure coding and billing for students/patients as they progress through various Campus Health medical services.
