Meal Access Card

Use of Meal Access Card
  1. Meal Access Cards may be used in the Medical Center cafeteria, and at the Medical Plaza Deli.
  2. An annual limit for meals will be set for each house officer based on the reported work schedule. Each time a house officer uses the Meal Access Card to purchase a meal, the cost of the meal will be debited from the meal limit. Once the annual allocation has been used, no additional funds will be available.
  3. A maximum expenditure per day will be set by Administration. Expenditures that exceed the daily limit must be paid for in cash.
  4. Meal access cards must be presented to the cashier at the time of purchase. The Meal Access Card number will not be accepted in lieu of the card.
  5. Meal Access Cards are to be used solely by the eligible house officer. However, when a house officer is unable to obtain a meal in the cafeteria due to his/her need to remain in a patient care area, someone else may use the house officer’s Meal Access Card on his/her behalf to go to the cafeteria to pick up the meal.
  6. Meal card balances will zero out at the end of the academic year (June 30). There is no carry-over from year to year.
