A little extra coverage goes a long way
You don’t have to spend a lot to add valuable supplemental benefits for acupuncture, chiropractic, dental, and vision to your employee health care plans.¹
Complementary care
Our complementary care plans — for chiropractic care (alone) and paired with acupuncture — let employees see a chiropractor or acupuncturist without a referral. Visits are in addition to coverage provided in their core plans and are available as contract options to all business and labor groups.2 Check plan details for more information about coverage in your area.
Optical plans
Give your employees added coverage they’ll enjoy with a choice of optical plans from Vision Essentials. Plans cover eye exams and medical care from trusted Kaiser Permanente ophthalmologists and optometrists, contact and prescription lenses, and prescription eyeglasses and sunglasses — often available in the same convenient location. Check your plan for details and Vision Essentials Optical Centers in your area.
Dental plans
It’s easy to find a dental plan that’s right for your business. In California, choose from our fee-for-service (FFS) plan offering maximum coverage and greater provider choice. Or, if you’re looking for lower premiums, our preferred provider organization (PPO) plan gives your employees the same quality dental care, but with a smaller network of providers. We also offer an HMO dental plan for California employees.³
