Employee Benefits

Employee Benefits consist of all the programs that people have access to,
solely as a result of the Employer-Employee relationship, including but not limited to the following items:

Group Medical

Medical insurance is the biggest and most important Benefit most Employers offer because this is the coverage that assists Employees with the cost of all of their doctor, hospital, and prescription coverage costs (to name a few). There are 2 main plan types, HMO or PPO, and inside those 2 plan types are 4 tiers of plan options: Platinum, Gold, Silver, and Bronze. Employers choose plans to offer to their Employees from a suite of 100’s of plans in California from 8 major providers: Aetna, Anthem Blue Cross, Blue Shield, Cigna, Health Net, Kaiser, Oscar, and United Healthcare. Every State has their own Carriers and plan types.
