Additional Benefits ▼

  • Critical Illness Insurance: This plan provides a lump-sum cash benefit to help pay for out-of-pocket medical expenses or any other bills that need attention, including rent or groceries. Covered conditions include heart attack, major organ failure, kidney failure, stroke, cancer, and more. During your new hire enrollment period only, you can elect coverage without answering medical questions! 
  • Hospital Indemnity Insurance: Even with health insurance, a stay in the hospital can quickly become costly as out-of-pocket charges begin to add up. Hospital indemnity insurance can reduce the financial and emotional stress of a hospital stay by providing a lump-sum cash benefit directly to you that can be used however you need. Enroll without answering medical questions!
  • Life Insurance with Long-Term Care: Life Insurance protects your family members with a death benefit that can be used any way they choose, such as mortgage or rent, education for children, debt, and final expenses. This policy also includes “living benefits” that allow policyholders to accelerate a portion of the life insurance death benefit if diagnosed by a physician as chronically or terminally ill. These extra “living benefits” can be used to help pay expenses from an unexpected medical crisis and help alleviate the worry of future financial problems. During your new hire enrollment period only, you can elect coverage without answering medical questions! 
  • Basic Life and AD&D Insurance: Term life insurance can help you in so many ways, like helping to cover everyday expenses, pay off debt, and protect savings. Accidental death and dismemberment (AD&D) insurance provides additional benefits if you die or suffer a covered loss in an accident, such as losing a limb or your eyesight. Basic Life and AD&D Insurance is provided at no cost to benefit-eligible employees.
  • Voluntary Life and AD&D Insurance: Voluntary Life and AD&D are available in addition to your employer-provided Basic Life and AD&D. You may purchase life insurance for your spouse and dependents only if you purchase coverage for yourself. Benefits are payable to your beneficiary, so be sure to keep your beneficiary designation up to date.
  • Voluntary Short-Term Disability Insurance: Provides a cash benefit when you are out of work for up to 24 weeks due to injury, illness, surgery, or recovery from childbirth.
  • Long-Term Disability Insurance: You always have bills to pay, even when you can’t get to work due to injury, illness, or surgery. Long-term disability insurance helps you make ends meet during this difficult time.
  • Employee Assistance Program (EAP): Lincoln Financial Group offers the EmployeeConnect program, a mobile app and website, for you and your family members. EmployeeConnect gives you connections to information about life events when you need it, counseling sessions (up to 5), coping strategies, and even discounts! Join EmployeeConnect and explore these new resources, all at no cost to you!
  • Legal Plan: Offers direct access to a national network of attorneys. Covered legal services include the preparation of wills and trusts, real estate matters, traffic matters, document preparation and review, debt matters, and more.

Flexible Spending Account (FSA) ▼

The Flexible Spending Account allows employees to take advantage of the provisions in Section 125 of the Internal Revenue Code. This Code section provides that payroll deductions for health insurance, dental insurance, life insurance, and child care will be taken on a before-tax basis. This plan must always comply with the latest requirements of the IRS code and therefore changes may occur without notice.
