BruinCare
is an alternative healthcare program that grants students who have waived UC
SHIP unlimited prepaid access to certain core services at The Ashe Center. The
one-time BruinCare fee for undergraduate students is $50 per quarter, $75 per
semester for Law and Medical students.
Students
essentially eliminate their visit fee(s), in-house lab fee(s), and x-ray
procedure fee(s). Unlimited access is provided for such core services:
- All
visits with Ashe primary care providers
- In-house
laboratory tests
- In-house
x-ray procedures without need of specialized equipment
Please
note that BruinCare is not health insurance. It does not cover emergency or
urgent care visits, medical services rendered outside of The Ashe Center or
non-core services at The Ashe Center.
There
is no BruinCare for the summer. A spring term purchase of BruinCare does not
extend into summer and coverage ends with the last official day of spring term
exams.
