Re: Medical Expenses for Lab Personnel Ruth B Smith 06 Jan 2003 16:45 EST
In my experience, health safety costs are covered by institutions centrally. They are indirect costs of doing business that are often attributable to multiple departments and projects. The particular unit responsible should either be employee health or research, depending upon where funds are available.

In most cases these costs (such as immunizations for rabies, tetanus, hepatitis, etc.) are not covered by the individuals' medical insurance, and thus must be recovered directly from the grants they support or the departments where they work. This can complicate the preparation of proposal budgets and the allocation of the costs. (None of the labs are recharge centers under OMB Circular A-21.) I would appreciate it very much if any of the Listserv members can guide me to institutional policies that address this issue. Thanks!
