Bruin DIRECT & USHIP

<p>I'm trying to sign up for Bruin Direct and they said I have to put all the forms in the yellow return envelope. However, I did not see this included; does anyone know what address I should mail it to?</p>

<p>Secondly, do I have to waive USHIP every quarter? thanks!</p>

<p>The address is on the form (2nd paragraph). I don't think they ever send the yellow envelope. Whoever is stuffing it forgot or they ran out of envelopes.</p>

<p>when you waive SHIP it gives you option to waive it for specific quarter I did it for them all</p>

<p>Just be sure that if and when you waive SHIP that you get a confirmation number, waive the entire school year AND be sure to waive before the deadline. </p>

<p>I've worked in the SHIP insurance office and soo many students every quarter screw these things up and end up paying for their private and SHIP insurance.</p>

<p>Actually, you should get three confirmation numbers, each corresponding with the three quarters.</p>

<p>Hey I met all the requirements, but how do I go about finding a location withint 25 miles of UCLA?</p>

<p>You should call your insurance provider. That's what I did when I didn't know if I met any of the requirements. It may just happen to be UCLA Medical. :)</p>

<p>mine was UCLA medical woohoo</p>

<p>I'm confused.. why do you waive SHIP? Is it beacause you have some other insurance?</p>

<p>if you have private insurance and it meets the criteria set by UCLA you can waive SHIP, which is student insurance provided by UCLA. You save like $600 for the whole year</p>

<p>Where in URSA do we waive SHIP???? what menu??</p>

<p>when is the deadline for waiving the student insurance thing? i think i've lost the packet they sent me for everything, but my orientation counselor told me i could just waive it on MYUCLA webpage. i have insurance for kaiser permanente hospital, does anyone know if kaiser qualifies? </p>

<p>also for the bruindirect thing, i've also lost the packet, but where do we sign up for the bruindirect? i need the bruindirect to transfer my financial aid money right ?</p>

<p>September 20th I believe, and also I do think you have to do the bruindirect by mail because you have to mail in a voided check...</p>

<p>Kaiser qualifies. :)</p>

<p>so if we already have insurance, then all we have to do is waive the ucla student insurance? how do we waive the ucla student insurance if i lost the mail that they sent me about it? can i do it online?</p>

<p>you can waive it only if it meets specific requirements. if you have an hmo, you have to find a new doctor in the area.</p>

<p>Umm. You are supposed to do it online at <a href="http://www.studenthealth.ucla.edu/%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www.studenthealth.ucla.edu/&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p>

<p>so right now i have insurance from kaiser permanente. should i waive ucla student insurance if there is a kaiser within 25miles from ucla ?</p>

<p>does kaiser if a maximum of 5000 out of pocket expense and at least 100,000 in lifetime benefits?</p>
