Dental insurance is a highly sought-after benefit among employees, contributing to their health and satisfaction. It's particularly cost-effective for small employers to add to their group medical plans. Some larger employers may even consider self-funding dental expenses with the assistance of a Third Party Administrator. Regardless of your business size, finding a plan that aligns with your budget while providing access to a network of high-quality dentists in your area is crucial.
Vision plans cover both office visits and the costs associated with lenses and frames. These plans can be structured to provide new glasses or contacts on an annual or bi-annual basis, with a typical cost of around $15 per month for an employee. Vision plans are often requested by employees who wear glasses, understanding the expenses and the likelihood of losing or breaking them. Most optometrists participate in major networks, ensuring that employees can usually use their preferred optometrist.
In summary, both dental and vision insurance are valuable benefits that contribute to employee well-being and satisfaction, and finding plans that suit your business size and budget is essential.
