Vision Plan Rates
You pay the cost of the MIT Vision Plan through deductions from your MIT pay each pay period. You are not taxed on the deductions that pay for your vision plan. MIT does not help pay the cost of this coverage.
The amount you pay depends on your employment category and the coverage tier you select.

*Domestic partnerships: Important info about insurance and your taxes
MIT's policy is the same for domestic partners as it is for married spouses and their eligible dependent children. You and MIT share the cost of coverage for your spouse/domestic partner and/or any eligible dependent children. You should be aware, however, that the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) imposes certain financial and tax regulations on health insurance costs in domestic partnerships. Read more (PDF).
