University Health Service
The University Health Service provides students with comprehensive medical care, counseling, insurance and health education. Services include visits to physicians, nurse practitioners, specialists and specialty clinics; health education; counseling; a pharmacy; physical therapy; and basic laboratory tests and x-rays. Most services are subsidized by student registration fees, so the direct cost to students is modest. For more information, call 510-642-2000 or visit the website at www.uhs.berkeley.edu.
University Health Insurance Plan
All students must carry major medical health insurance while attending Berkeley, including the law school. Students are automatically enrolled in the university's Student Health Insurance Plan (SHIP) and are charged a health insurance fee as part of registration. Students covered by other health insurance plans may choose not to use SHIP if they can show their coverage is comparable. For more information, call 510-642-5700 or visit the website at www.uhs.berkeley.edu/students/insurance/index.shtml.
Counseling Services
The Tang Center provides a variety of services for Berkeley students, including career, personal and crisis counseling; testing services; career information; and group counseling. For more information, call 510-642-9494 or visit the website at www.uhs.berkeley.edu/students/counseling/index.shtml.
