Overview

Academic Student Employees (ASEs) and Graduate Student Researchers (GSRs) employed in qualifying appointments are eligible to receive 100% premium remission for child dependents enrolled in UCSHIP if the employee's income exceeds the designated Medi-Cal eligibility threshold as specified in the collective bargaining agreements (CBAs).

If the employee has a spouse, and the combination of their income places the employee's family over the designated Medi-Cal eligibility threshold then the employee is not eligible for the child dependent premium remission.

The benefits described on this page follow the parties’ collective bargaining agreements. The CBAs are the controlling documents, and this program overview is not meant to replace or contradict the language that is contained in the CBA or applicable University policy and is not a substitute for reviewing contract articles carefully. This program overview will be interpreted as consistent with the CBAs and, in the event of a conflict, the language of the CBAs or applicable policy will control.
