Q&A With LifeBridge Health Employees

At LifeBridge Health, we are continually evaluating our benefits to meet the needs of our diverse workforce. In addition to market-competitive compensation, many of your employee benefits are paid for 100 percent by LifeBridge Health or are substantially subsidized. As part of our ongoing effort to be a great place to work, we are pleased to present the following benefits to our employees. As you'll see, there are many benefit options, and you may choose the benefits you want based on your needs. Health Insurance Choose any doctor under the Triple Option Health plan. This benefit gives employees the right to choose a LifeBridge Health network provider, a Blue Cross Blue Shield provider or an out-of-network provider. The Prescription Drug Plan provides generic, brand and nonformulary drugs. Vision Coverage Employees receive discounts on eye exams, lenses, frames and contact lenses. Dental Coverage The annual maximum benefit for dental coverage is $1,500 for all eligible nonunion employees. Disability Coverage Short-term and long-term disability is available. In the event of a long-term disability, full-time employees will continue to receive part of their pay. Retirement Plans 403(b)/401(k) and pension plans are offered at LifeBridge Health. Investment advisers help employees with their retirement plans, and a company match is available. Adoption Assistance LifeBridge Health provides financial reimbursement of up to $3,500 to eligible employees who adopt a child under the age of 18. Phase-In Retirement Full-time and part-time nonunion employees age 60 or older who have worked at LifeBridge Health for at least five years can reduce their hours and become or stay part time as they approach retirement, yet keep their lower full-time medical, prescription and dental benefits rates. Flexible Spending Accounts FSA accounts allow pre-tax payments for health care expenses such as prescriptions; glasses; and dependent care expenses, including child and adult day care, nursery or preschool fees, and summer day camps.
