2007 - 2008 Benefits

While the supportive, family-like atmosphere and strong academic program are great reasons to choose the Mount Carmel Family Medicine Residency Program, the long list of benefits is certainly another. Our benefits package offers a wide variety of programs and services to meet the diverse needs of all of our residents. Effective July 1, 2007, second-year and third-year residents are also paid an additional $25.00 per hour for hospital work preformed during their home obstetrical (OB) call. In addition to health, prescription, and malpractice insurance plans, residents of the family medicine residency program enjoy free parking, paid meals, a generous education allowance, paid time off, and much more.
