Health Insurance
A variety of health insurance options exist for the residents at King/Drew Medical Center. The hospital makes a monthly contribution of $305/individual, $530/individual + 1 family member, or $613/individual + 2 or more family members, to any of 14 different coverage packages. If your choice of package costs less monthly than the hospital’s contribution, the difference will be paid directly to you, as taxable income. Should you come to the residency program with coverage already provided to you (ie from your spouse), you can elect to waive coverage. In such an instance, the hospital will pay the standard contribution to you, under the condition that you are able to provide proof of the already existing coverage.
Dental Insurance
Delta Dental, DeltaCare (PMI), and Safeguard provide three different levels of coverage to Martin Luther King/Drew Medical Center residents. Monthly fees will be deducted from the contribution referenced in the above section Health Insurance.
Life Insurance
Dependent Term Life Insurance will take a deduction (After-Tax Benefit) of $1.24 from the hospital’s monthly benefits contribution.
Vacation
In lieu of other vacation or holiday allowances, residents are entitled to 24 days paid vacation each year. Unused vacation, up to 10 calendar days per year, may be deferred until the end of training and will then be paid.
Sick Leave
Sick time is accrued to a maximum of eight (8) days per year. Residents who have worked at least 12 consecutive months of continuous service and who have not used any sick leave are afforded the opportunity for “cash reimbursement” of up to 24 hours of unused sick leave. The two time periods are from January 1 to June 30 and from July 1 to December 31. |
