Does your company offer a choice of health insurance plans?
Pittsburgh Business Times - by Patty Tascarella
"Yes. We provide a basic established plan through (University of Pittsburgh Medical Center) Health Plan that allows people at our company to customize it with parts of other plans. Whether it's a single person or a family, there are different options they can choose. " - Brian Tedeschi, principal/general manager, Think Communications Inc.
"We have (a plan from) one of the premier carriers in the area, and we pay 100 percent for dental, optical and health. On one hand, we don't offer a choice, but on the other hand, I'm not sure there's been a lot of clamor. It's worked out pretty well for us. We've taken a policy as a company that the health of our employees is very critical for our success." - Astro Teller, chairman and chief research and strategy officer, BodyMedia Inc.
"We offer two plans, and the difference is the amount of the deductible and also how much the co-pay is. One plan provides a little more coverage, but then that costs both the bank and the employee more. We allow employees to make the choice based on their own evaluation of their health needs, in terms of how much out-of-pocket they might have to spend in a given year." - Richard Spencer, CEO, Fidelity Bancorp Inc.
