| | | | Medical Insurance through Harvard University Health Services | | | | | BWH postdoctoral fellows are considered "Affiliates" and are eligible for enrollment in the Harvard Student Health Plan, when they have a current appointment with the university, and when they are not eligible for employee benefits either through the university or BWH. For Postdoctoral Fellows, there is no limitation to the number of years that they may be enrolled in the Harvard Student Health Plan as long as they maintain a Harvard Appointment as a Postdoctoral Fellow through BWH. Enrollment is for a full semester (2/1/08-7/31/08 or 8/1/08-1/31/09) or full year (2/1/08-1/31/09) only, and plans are not pro-rated. In light of this, others have enrolled prospectively for the following semester, and have purchased some type of travel insurance or catastrophic insurance for the dates before their HUHS coverage goes into effect - which tends to be lower cost. | | |
| | | | National Postdoc Association Offers Health Insurance to Members | | | | | The NPA and Garnett-Powers and Associates, Inc. have joined together to offer a health insurance plan to full, individual NPA members who do not have access to health insurance. Benefit coverage for the new plan is provided through StudentResources, a UnitedHealthcare company specializing in university health programs. Garnett-Powers are longtime supporters of NPA. | | |
| | | | Tuition Reimbursement | | | | | Read the policy, eligibility guidelines, course requirements, other details, and see the online application tutorial. Questions about a specific course are best directed to your supervisor and the BWH Tuition Reimbursement Coordinator at 617.582.0100 or BWHTuition@partners.org.
