2024 Benefits

  • MEDICALWe will be staying with United Healthcare. We will continue with the Health Reimbursement (HRA) subsidy to minimize your out-of-pocket costs. Please review all three plan options to decide which option is best for you and your family. 


  • HEALTH SAVINGS ACCOUNT (HSA): For anyone participating in the high deductible plan, you can contribute up to $4,150 for individual and $8,300 for family towards your HSA. For anyone over 55, you can elect an additional $1,000 as a catch-up contribution.


  • FLEXIBLE SPENDING ACCOUNT (FSA): You can contribute up to $4,150 in 2023 towards your FSA. This account allows eligible employees to contribute pre-tax dollars to an account to be used for medical, dental and vision expenses. Your full annual election is immediately available at the beginning of the plan year. If any balances remain at the end of the year, you will have 2 1/2 months of the following year to accrue charges and submit claims. Any unused funds after the 2 1/2 grace period rollover will be forfeited. If you are enrolled in an HSA, you can still contribute to an FSA, however this would be considered a Limited Purpose FSA. Eligible expenses under a Limited Purpose FSA are dental and vision expenses and out of pocket medical expenses after you reach the federally qualified high deductible health plan annual deductible of $1,400 for an individual or $2,800 for a family.


  • VOLUNTARY BENEFITS: We will continue to offer Voluntary Benefits with Reliance again this year. We are offering two Accident Plan options to suit all of our employees' needs. We are offering Critical Illness coverage which combines the Cancer and Critical Illness benefits. This makes the claims process for cancer claims much easier! There will only be the initial claim to process! Lastly, we are offering two Hospital Indemnity Plan options. Remember these benefits pay cash benefits directly to YOU!


  • DENTAL & VISION: This year we continue our Dental & Vision coverages to United Healthcare.


  • LIFE/AD&D AND DISABILITY: We will be keeping our Group Life/AD&D, Voluntary Life/AD&D, Short Term Disability and Long Term Disability benefits with Equitable this year. If you currently have coverage, you will keep your benefits. As a new hire, you can enroll in the Voluntary Life/AD&D, Short Term Disability and Long Term Disability coverages with no medical questions asked. However, if you would like to increase your life coverage or have previously waived coverage and would like to newly enroll, you will need to complete medical questions (Evidence of Insurability EOI) to request the coverage(s).


  • FSA DEPENDENT CARE ACCOUNT (DCA): Employees can deduct “pre-tax” earnings into a Dependent Care Account (DCA). A Dependent Care Account (DCA) can be used to pay for dependent care services, such as preschool, summer day camp, before or after school programs, and child or elder daycare. You can contribute a maximum of $5,000 annually.
