Johns Hopkins Graduate Medical Education

Here is a table of Johns Hopkins Housestaff benefits compared to benefits of 7 leading residency programs in the country.

This program provides in-home sick, emergency or back-up care at a reduced cost for dependents of benefit-eligible faculty and staff. Because funds are limited, eligibility is on a first come, first serve basis.

Emergency Fund

Emergency funds of no more than $500 per academic year per person are available from the House Staff Council with no expectation of repayment. These funds are intended solely for emergency needs such as urgent medical costs not covered by insurance, urgent housing needs, travel to a family funeral or to visit a sick family member.
