This Plan is a pre-tax Section 125 cafeteria plan. This means that all insurance premiums are taken out of participating employee’s paychecks before federal income tax is withheld. The IRS regulates section 125 plans.

The Plan is a PPO plan with network and non-network coverage. Some of the features include a Physician Office Co-pay of $25 for in network, calendar year deductibles (maximum 2 per family), preventive care, outpatient lab, hospital services, emergency services, and a prescription drug plan.
