Benefits: Visiting Scientists and Visiting Predoctoral Students

Visiting scientists are eligible to participate in the Montefiore benefits program offered through our affiliation with Montefiore Health System.

Visiting Scientists and Visiting Predoctoral
Students Benefits Summary

Medical

Visiting scientists and visiting pre-doctoral students receive a bundled benefits package that include medical and vision coverage.

The MontePrime EPO plan requires that certain in-network providers be used to receive benefits under the plan. Any cost share will be higher when the Empire BlueCard PPO facilities and providers outside of Montefiore and the Montefiore Integrated Provider Association network are used.

Prescription Drug Benefits

The prescription drug benefits under the MontePrime EPO plan are available through the Montefiore Outpatient Pharmacy only.

Under the MonteCare PPO plan, the prescription drug benefits are administered by Express Scripts Inc. (ESI). Under the MonteCare PPO plan you have the option using retail pharmacies within the ESI network, the ESI home delivery pharmacy service, or the Montefiore Outpatient Pharmacy for your prescription drug needs. Prescriptions filled at the Montefiore Outpatient Pharmacy will be delivered to the Weiler Hospital Pharmacy on a daily basis.

Vision Benefits

The Vision Plan, administered by United Health Care Vision, provides benefits for routine eye exams, eye glasses or contact lenses.
