We recognize that each employee’s needs are different — that’s why our comprehensive benefit package allows employees a choice of medical plan. Employee’s can choose between 2 PPO plans and an HMO plan*. All of these plans provide quality health care, prescription drug coverage, vision care, disease management programs, reasonable office co-pays and NO PRE-EXISTING LIMITATIONS.
* The HMO service area is limited to certain counties in the North (Reno area) and South (Las Vegas area).

When you use a networked provider your preventative dental services – exam, cleaning (up to four a year!), bite-wing x-rays and fluoride treatments will be covered at 100% not subject to deductible.
