Questions may be directed to those identified in your schedule or your onboarding delegate.

Benefits

Please review the New Hire Benefits Presentation (PDF) and the Benefits and Retirement webpages prior to your orientation date. Please review our MUSC University Leave Guidelines (PDF) if you are considering a research grant (non-FTE), temporary or time-limited position.

You will have 30 days from your start date to enroll in your retirement plan and 31 days to enroll in insurance. New hires who start on the first calendar day of the month will have insurance benefits effective the first of the month. New hires who begin work on the first business day of the month can choose to have their insurance start the first day of that month or the first day of the following month. If the employee starts on a day other than the first working or calendar day of the month, their insurance will be effective the first of the next month.

Outside the new hire window, the next opportunity to elect benefits will be Open Enrollment every October. Open Enrollment changes take effect January 1st of the following year.

University Transfers

A transfer is required to keep the same benefits enrolled in with your previous employer when moving to the MUSC plan. One exception to this policy is if you were enrolled in the State Savings Plan with your former employer, you must switch to the MUSC Health plan upon starting employment with MUSC. All other state insurance benefits must remain the same. Should you wish to change benefits, you may do so during Open Enrollment.

If a transfer had Dependent Care Spending and/or a Medical Spending Account with your prior agency, MUSC University Payroll must be notified. Please send an email to your payroll administrator with a screenshot of your year-to-date MSA and or DSA contribution from ASIFlex, or your last paystub from your prior state agency. MUSC University Payroll will then adjust your remaining contribution owed with MUSC. 

Please review the Transfer Checklist for next steps.
