If you are only on Contributions Based ESA then this alone isn't being migrated to UC.
If you receive any Income Related ESA or another benefit such as Housing Benefit, these will be migrated.
Upon migration any CB ESA converts automatically into New Style ESA, and is deducted in full from your UC award. New Style ESA is not means tested.
