What is a PCP in UGA?

When students enter UGA, they are automatically assigned to a primary care provider (PCP) in a primary care Medical Clinic. UHC has four primary care Medical Clinics composed of physicians, physician assistants, nurse practitioners, registered nurses and support staff, and they work as a team much like a doctor’s office. This enables each patient to return to the same provider and team for continuity of care. The teams are designated by color and consist of the Medical Clinic Gold, Medical Clinic Blue, Medical Clinic Green, and Medical Clinic Red.
