The MIT Advantage & Eligibility

Since 1981, the South Carolina Medical Association Members’ Insurance Trust has provided members with exemplary health insurance and customer service. Our commitment to providing personalized service to our members is what sets us apart.

As one of the original participating employers in SCMA MIT, our leadership and employees place a premium on customer service.  At MIT, our employees are treated like family.  Whether it is a coverage question or adding a loved one to the plan, the MIT team always takes care of our employees in a timely and caring way.

We offer a variety of plan designs to fit our members’ needs and health care priorities and do so at rates that are often lower those available on the commercial market. Through MIT, our members can access a host of additional benefits and coverage options, including life insurance, a retirement option, short-term disability insurance, and an employee assistance program.

A great insurance plan is only worthwhile if it is paired with outstanding customer service. At MIT, our team takes the time to cultivate relationships with each of our members. We take pride in addressing your specific needs and questions.
