Employee Benefits
Mile Bluff Medical Center’s benefits package offers employees numerous
resources to help them reach financial and professional goals. Benefit
eligibility is open to both full-time (1950-2080 hours worked per year)
and part-time (1200 hours worked per year) employees. As an employee,
your benefits may include, but are not limited to:
Group Health Insurance
Coverage is currently provided by QuartzHealth. Employees can elect to
have a family, single plus one, or single-coverage plan. Mile Bluff Medical
Center contributes to the cost of the health insurance premium, based
on the chosen plan and the years that an employee has participated in
the plan. Coverage is offered to benefit-eligible employees.*
Group Dental Insurance
Dental insurance is offered to benefit-eligible employees through Delta
Dental. During the calendar year, the maximum benefit is $1,500. Mile
Bluff Medical Center contributes to the cost of the premium based on the
plan chosen and the years an employee has participated in the plan.
401(k)
All employees who have completed one year of service and who have at least
1,000 worked hours in a year, are eligible to participate in the 401(k)
plan. Mile Bluff Medical Center will match 100 percent of an employee's
contribution, up to five percent of his/her compensation. Immediately,
all contributions are 100-percent invested.
Employees have the benefit of discussing the 401(k) program with a financial
advisor, free of charge. The advisor travels to Mile Bluff monthly, and
is also available by phone.
