The University of California offers one of the most comprehensive student health insurance plans to its student population, the University of California Student Health Insurance Program (UC SHIP). Participation in UC SHIP is mandatory for both graduates and undergraduates, but students can waive out if they can show comparable coverage.

The Student Health and Insurance Advisory Committee (SHIAC) advises the Chancellor regarding UC SHIP with the goal of securing the highest quality health care at a fair price for all eligible UC Irvine students.  The SHIAC recommends to the Chancellor the position UC Irvine should take to the UC SHIP Advisory Board, especially with regards to coverage and fees.   The SHIAC is composed of graduate students, undergraduate students, administrative representatives and Student Health Center representatives.  For further details on the responsibilities and membership of the SHIAC, please see the SHIAC Charter.

For further information regarding medical, dental and vision benefits of UCSHIP, please visit the UCI Student Health Center at http://www.shs.uci.edu/health_insurance_privacy/insurance.aspx#shipplan
