*NOTE AS OF MAY 2025: The University of California’s Health system is in continuing negotiations for a new agreement to keep our health care facilities and professionals “in network” with Blue Shield of California health plans, to preserve access to care for millions of Californians. If a new agreement is not reached, all of the University of California’s health care facilities and professionals will be out of network for Blue Shield of California members starting on July 10, 2025. This includes UC Davis Health.
