Accident
Accident insurance can offset expenses such as emergency room fees, deductibles, and co-pays related to injuries suffered in a fall, while playing sports, or following another type of accident. This benefit is offered through MetLife and administered for JHU by Mercer Voluntary Benefits.
Auto & Homeowners
Save money on insurance through the Choice Auto and Homeowner’s Insurance Program, which offers you a competitive quote from a selection of top-rated auto and homeowner’s insurers and provides special discounts for JHU employees. The program is administered for JHU by Mercer Voluntary Benefits.

Critical illness insurance is available for employees and their eligible spouse, domestic partner, or dependents.
