All paid full-time graduate staff and their eligible dependents may participate in MSK’s benefits program. The cost is shared between you and MSK. Most contributions toward your share of the benefits are paid with before-tax dollars, which means they will be deducted from your pay before payroll taxes are applied. Visit the Benefits for trainees page to learn more about the benefit options available to you and your eligible dependents, including Medical, Dental and Vision coverage.
Memorial Hospital provides professional liability insurance for its employed trainees while acting within the scope of their employment for duties as assigned by their department. This professional liability insurance coverage applies to covered loss events that occurred during their employment at Memorial Hospital but were unknown and not submitted as claims until after their employment ended.
