Changes to Rideshare Reimbursement Program

UCSF has made changes to the temporary COVID-19 rideshare reimbursement program that was implemented on March 20.  Rideshare expenses incurred after Friday, May 1, can no longer be submitted in MyExpense for reimbursement.

 

As a replacement UCSF, in partnership with Uber, is launching a temporary UCSF COVID-19 Campus Commuting Program. Employees facing a commute hardship who had been using rideshares/submitting for reimbursement previously and would like to continue use of subsidized rideshares need to join the new program to use subsidized Uber rides moving forward. UCSF employees must first get approval from their supervisor.

 

Program participants will pay 25 percent of the Uber ride fare. UCSF departments will cover 75 percent of the cost, for up to two fares a day (one round trip). Maximum subsidy will not exceed $50 per ride. Any driver tip will be paid by the rider.
