Congratulations to OD honor award recipients Jim Kulhman and Mary Jo Mujemulta! Our team members were recognized for their collaboration and hard work to resolve the long-standing NIH Fellows insurance policy and payment issues with the NIH Office of Financial Management.
NIH OITE POSTDOC FAQS: Health insurance is required for all Postdoctoral IRTA/CRTA and VF trainees. The NIH will pay for low-option individual or family coverage available through the Foundation for Advanced Education in the Sciences (FAES). If you wish to subscribe to an FAES policy with more extensive coverage than that provided by the NIH, you will be required to pay the difference in cost. If you are already insured on another policy, you will be allowed to remain on that policy if you provide evidence of coverage. If the policy is in your name, and you can demonstrate that you are the individual who makes the premium payments, you will be reimbursed by the amount the NIH would have paid for FAES coverage.
