MTN Travel and Reimbursement Guidelines & Procedures

Overview

 

These guidelines apply to all MTN-related travel unless the traveler has been informed otherwise.

 

Reimbursements will only be made for approved business travel and for allowable expenses as determined by U.S. government regulations, Magee-Womens Research Institute and Foundation (MWRIF) policies, and/or MTN Travel and Reimbursement Guidelines. The MWRIF business office has sole discretion in determining allowable expenses.

 

To be reimbursed for out-of-pocket expenses, travelers must complete an MTN Travel Reimbursement Memo (listed at the bottom of this page) detailing the dates and purpose of travel and clearly documenting all expenses related to travel.

 

The MTN Travel and Reimbursement Memo and accompanying documentation must be submitted within 30 days of travel to:
