HUSHP is the Harvard University Student Health Program. Our Member Services office is excited to share an educational video highlighting HUSHP and how it works. To improve the student experience, we designed this video as a quick educational introduction to HUSHP. The video is a little over 3 minutes long. The video, using narrative structure and animation, helps explain how the program works, provides information about the Student Health Fee and Student Health Insurance Plan, addresses differences between the Student Health Fee and the Student Health Insurance Plan, and lists an overview of the benefits, services, and resources available to students under each.

The Summary of Health Plan Payments breaks down payments for medical services you’ve received outside of HUHS when enrolled in SHIP.

If you owe money, your provider will send you a bill directly.
