The University of Central Florida (UCF) recently opened its new $8 million Health Center.
The project includes construction of a new 48,725-sf, three-story health center that functions as the basic medical service provider for students, faculty, and staff at the UCF. The center provides basic exams, x-rays, blood work and check-ups. The center also has a fully functional pharmacy, a women's clinic, numerous administrative offices, several meeting rooms, and various medical supply storage spaces. There is also space, which may be allocated in the future, for additional medical services, such as a dental office.
In addition to the new facility, the project includes the renovation of the existing 13,508-sf Health Center, which is located adjacent to the new facility, and will house both the Counseling and the REACH (Health Education) departments.

The cost figures reported are supplied by the firms that submitted these
projects for publication, which in most cases are the designers or builders.
Whereas these sources are intimately familiar with their projects, they may
not be fully aware of the owners' finally-realized and recorded costs. In some
cases, costs are truly and completely accounted for, and in others they represent
a near approximation of the final costs. Costs have not been adjusted for
year of construction, nor has any attempt been made to make regional cost
adjustments.
Further, costs are not comparable on any kind of detailed standard costing model.
Hence, it is possible for the cost of one building to include a steam boiler, while
the cost of a comparable building might not include the boiler, if steam is being
supplied from an already existing campus grid. Or, in another case, a building might
include excess boiler capacity to supply steam to another building. Some submittals
include fees or unusual site improvements as part of the construction costs, which
others do not.
