Health and medical-related benefits
Health care coverage is one of the most important benefits the university offers you. It helps pay for your medical, dental, and vision care, as well as your prescriptions. You may also wish to open a health care flexible spending account to defray medical-related costs and reduce your taxable income. Other benefit offerings provide coverage for other medical situations (including disability); life insurance and accidental death & dismemberment (AD&D) insurance protects your family as well. USC faculty practices and other university-based health care services are listed below too.
