Health Insurance

Medical bills can become very expensive very quickly, so health insurance is one of the most important employee benefits. Lucky for you, it’s also one of the most common. Your employer may pay the full cost of the premium, which is the cost of coverage, or you may have to pay a percentage by having it deducted from your paycheck.

You may have a choice of different insurance plans or you might be offered just a single option. Either way, it’s smart to enroll, as it’s likely to be cheaper than any other way to get this protection. If you do have a choice, it pays to take the time to compare the costs and the benefits of each plan, as they can vary significantly.
