PrintWhich Benefits Should You Offer?
There are many health benefits that you can consider offering to employees, including:
- health insurance, including:
- health maintenance organizations (HMOs)
- preferred provider organizations (PPOs)
- traditional fee-for-service indemnity insurance
- major medical policies
- dental care insurance
- vision care insurance
- medical savings accounts
In addition to choosing a type of plan, you'll need to make some other decisions, as well, including:
- which services your plan will cover (in some cases, there are state mandates and special rules for small businesses you should be aware of)
- which employees your plan will cover (you may choose to exclude part-timers, for instance)
- what waiting period and eligibility requirements new employees will have
- how health plan portability requirements affect you
