COVID testing without SHIP

There is no charge to any student for the baseline asymptomatic test required for initial campus entry or re-entry.  There is no charge for the medically indicated test or when required for clinical placement.  SHCS does not order tests for other indications.  

There is one caveat for a student without SHIP who requires a medically indicated COVID-19 test. If there is a referral to the UCSF Respiratory Screening Clinic for an in-person evaluation, then the visit will be billed to private insurance.  For example, if you have a HMO (e.g. Kaiser) then the visit will be self-pay.  Student will be advised to seek care from their PCP.
