• Graduate Assistants Health Insurance

Beginning with the Fall 2009 semester, the cost of the health insurance subsidy for Graduate Assistants paid from C&G funds will be charged to the same funding source as the Graduate Assistant payroll.  This will reduce the remaining spending authority on your sponsored award because these charges were previously absorbed by unrestricted sources.  The actual cost of the health insurance is indicated on the chart below.  If you have Graduate Assistants paid from C&G funds, the subsidy amount (USF Portion) is based on their FTE in accordance with the provisions of the USF – GAU Collective Bargaining Agreement.  Please plan accordingly.  Open enrollment (the specific period of time that GA's will have to opt to enroll in the benefit program) will be in August.  If you have questions regarding GA eligibility for the subsidy, please contact Beverly Douglas, HR Manager, at (813) 974-9359. You may also learn more about the Graduate Assistant subsidy program by visiting http://usfweb2.usf.edu/usfpers/GAHealthInc.htm .
