The cost of the trip is either $2670 or $1670 depending on where you work and what you do. The actual cost per person of the trip is over $4,000. However, because of the generosity of the Dr. J Douglas Cusick Medical Mission Endowment fund which covers the cost of our medical supplies, the cost for all is reduced to $2,670. The reduced cost is what the physicians and those outside of AdventHealth Mid-America Region will pay. Team members of AdventHealth Mid-America Region (AHMAR) receive AN ADDITIONAL $1,000 SCHOLARSHIP from the endowment fund that reduces their total cost even more to $1,670. Scholarships are applied automatically to subsidize AHMAR team member trip expenses. One scholarship per calendar year is available per team member. For those who wish to fundraise to cover their costs, support will be provided by the AdventHealth Kansas City Foundation team. Additionally, because your cost is considered a deductible expense by the IRS, you will be able to deduct the cost of your trip (minus excursions) on your taxes.
