State Health Plan


MSU offers a healthcare program for both you and your dependents through participation in the State of Mississippi's self-insured plan.

You can enroll in coverage for yourself and any eligible dependents

  • when you begin work, or

  • during the annual open enrollment period each October.

You can also add dependents any time during the year if you meet the requirements of a special enrollment period – such as the birth or adoption of a child.

Coverage becomes effective the first day of your employment, provided you complete and submit an enrollment form within 31 days of your date of hire.
