Summer 2015 Prepaid Access to the UCLA Arthur Ashe Student Health & Wellness Center
BruinCare is a program that provides international students registered for UCLA Summer Session(s) prepaid
access to certain core services at the UCLA Arthur Ashe Student Health & Wellness Center. Having health
insurance is a condition of enrollment for your program; BruinCare is NOT insurance and does not cover
emergency room care, services rendered outside the Ashe Center or non-core services at Ashe. Please see
below for details about what is, and is not, covered.
Included in your fees for your summer program, BruinCare provides you with an unlimited number of basic
Ashe services, as detailed below. The period of coverage is June 22 – September 11, 2015 and requires
that you be registered for Summer Session(s). With BruinCare, you can minimize the need for worry when
you get sick and can conveniently access basic care without additional costs—BruinCare eliminates the outof-pocket costs for core visits, core labs, and in-house x-ray procedures performed at Ashe that nonBruinCare UCLA students have to pay.
