Life / Accidental Death & Dismemberment Insurances

Term Life Insurance

Emory provides Term Life Insurance for all eligible Medical House Staff, eligible spouses and dependent children between the age of 15 days to 19 years old. Coverage for dependent children may continue through the age of 27 if the child is a full-time student. Emory pays for this coverage.

Accidental Death & Dismemberment Insurance

Emory provides Accidental Death and Dismemberment Insurance for all eligible Medical House Staff. Emory pays for this coverage.

This insurance pays a benefit in the event of a loss of life, loss of the use of more than one member, or the loss of sight in both eyes. A member is defined as one arm, hand, or foot. Loss of sight means legal blindness. One-half of the full benefit amount is payable for loss of the use of one member or the loss of sight in one eye. The loss must be irrecoverable.
