Lyra Health

The Lyra/UC SHIP agreement is ending on July 31, 2024. If you are currently seeking care through a Lyra provider and need support in transitioning care, please send a secure message via the MyHealthRecord portal to the Insurance/Referral Coordinator or the MH Case Management.

Enrollees are eligible to receive short-term counseling at Student Mental Health and Wellbeing (SMHW) each academic year at no charge.

For long-term counseling, enrollees can choose an in-network or out-of-network provider. Please contact SMHW with your provider’s information so a referral can be sent to Anthem for future claims processing.

On the UC SHIP website, you can find details and important information about your plan as well as contact information and network providers.
