Health Benefits
We offer a choice between three different medical plans through the Providence Health Plan. Coverage under these plans includes comprehensive medical care, prescription drug and vision coverage, and alternative care. In addition, we offer all eligible employees and their dependents the option to elect for medical/prescription insurance, activate a Health Savings Account (HSA) and a Flexible Spending Account (FSA), and opt for dental insurance.
Each annual open enrollment gives you an opportunity to review your options and choose the plans that best fit your personal needs. Please see our most recent for a comprehensive summary of our health plan options.

Retirement Plan
We offer a 403(b) plan to eligible employees, a retirement plan that is offered by public schools and certain tax-exempt organizations. Like a 401(k) plan, a 403(b) plan allows employees to contribute a portion of their salary to the plan on a tax-deferred basis.
Tuition Remission & Tuition Exchange
We offer undergraduate and graduate tuition benefits to eligible employees and their spouse, as well as an undergraduate tuition exchange program for dependent children.
Tuition remission is a benefit pertaining to enrollment at ºìÐÓ¶ÌÊÓƵ Fox University. Tuition exchange provides employees the opportunity to apply, on behalf of their undergraduate dependent child, for tuition benefits at other higher education institutions.
Disability Insurance
To ensure your income will continue if you are unable to work due to a disability that extends for more than 14 consecutive days or accrued paid time off, whichever is later, we provide free short-term disability coverage.
We also offer long-term disability insurance, which helps replace a portion of your income if you are disabled for an extended period of time.

The university offers two life insurance policies through Unum:
- Group life and accidental death and dismemberment insurance available at no cost to employees with the benefit of two-times salary up to $250,000 maximum
