Postdoctoral Research Fellows Benefits
Postdoctoral research fellows of the Albert Einstein College of Medicine are offered a bundled package of benefits that include medical, dental, vision and life insurance coverage. Postdoctoral research fellows not supported by an NRSA training grant, have the option to participate in several of the pre-tax programs offered by the College.
Plan Médico
We offer the choice of two medical plans – The MontePrime EPO and MonteCare PPO Plans. Both plans utilize providers in the Montefiore network and the Anthem PPO network. Employee cost share will be higher for Anthem providers. Enrollment in the MontePrime EPO plan requires many of the services to be provided within the Montefiore network (except in the case of a bona fide emergency). The MonteCare PPO Plan provides the flexibility to use providers and facilities outside of the Montefiore and Anthem networks, but the cost will be higher for healthcare services received out of network.
Beneficios de medicamentos recetados
Los beneficios de medicamentos recetados están incluidos en la cobertura médica y son administrados por Express Scripts Inc (ESI). Además de las farmacias minoristas de la red de ESI y los servicios de entrega a domicilio de ESI, los empleados pueden usar la Farmacia Especializada Montefiore para surtir sus recetas. Las recetas surtidas en la Farmacia Especializada Montefiore se entregan diariamente a la Farmacia del Hospital Weiler en el Campus Einstein.
El Plan EPO de MontePrime brinda beneficios de medicamentos recetados solo A través de la Farmacia Especializada Montefiore. Sin embargo, los medicamentos adquiridos en una farmacia minorista pueden ser elegibles para reembolso de forma excepcional.
Beneficios dentales

Beneficios de la visión

Life Insurance Benefits
Life insurance is designed to pay a benefit to an employee’s named beneficiary if the postdoctoral research fellow dies from any cause while coverage is in effect. Einstein provides Basic Life insurance equal to $50,000.
Disability Benefits
Disability benefits continue part or all of a postdoctoral research fellow’s earnings if they are ill or injured and unable to work. Short term disability benefits include paid sick leave and supplemental sick pay for up to 26 weeks.
