Faculty Benefits
Icahn School of Medicine is committed to provide benefit plans that will protect faculty and their eligible family members in the event of illness, injury, or death and will help faculty to achieve financial security for their retirement. Details of these benefits plans are available from Human Resources. Please be advised that benefits vary depending upon faculty title and that benefit plans change from time to time. Provisions of the master policies govern the terms and conditions of these benefits.

Mount Sinai will contribute to the plan on your behalf, and in order to initiate your own employee (individual) contribution, you will need to complete certain forms.
