Your Benefits Plan Profile

Your best option is a Flexible Benefits Plan or a Traditional Benefits Plan with a Health Care Spending Account

Flexible Benefits Plans

Flexible benefits plans allow employers to meet the diverse needs and demographics of their workforce without breaking the bank.

They allow employers to define their contribution levels for the benefit period. Employees use those contributions to purchase benefits that meet their personal and family needs.

There are several types of flex plans offering varying levels of choice- from adding one or two optional benefits to a traditional plan to providing plan members with the ability to completely customize their benefits.

Traditional Benefits Plans

With a traditional benefits plan, the employer provides standard benefits to its employees. The most common benefits include:

  • Coverage for prescription drugs, paramedical services such as massage therapy, private or semi-private hospital coverage, vision care, etc.;
  • Dental coverage;
  • Life insurance and accidental death and dismemberment insurance; and
  • Disability insurance
Employers can provide full coverage or share some of the costs with employees by including deductibles, co-payment amounts or coverage maximums. Employees may be required to pay a portion of the premium.

Health Care Spending Accounts (HCSAs)

An HCSA is basically a health benefits bank account set up for each employee.

When employees spend their own money on eligible products and services, these expenses can be reimbursed through their HCSA.

An HCSA can also be added to a traditional benefits plan to cover eligible expenses that aren't covered by the plan.
