We are excited to announce new benefit vendors for 2025: United Healthcare, Optum HSA, Navitus Rx, and MetLife. Due to these updates, all employees must re-enroll, as providers, plans, and premiums have changed.
Supporting remarkable careers is a core part of our HR mission, and we believe a best-in-class employee experience starts with investing in our people. Based on your feedback from recent pulse surveys, we’re pleased to share that, effective January 1, 2025, we’ll be making strategic changes to our benefit offerings to enhance your health and wellness experience and remain competitive with other leading firms.
In the coming weeks, we will provide more details and resources about these changes. For now, please mark your calendars for November 1, as re-enrollment will be a priority to ensure you have the best coverage available.
We are confident that these updates will deliver greater value and streamlined services for all team members. Stay tuned for more information, and thank you for your continued commitment to our shared success.
We’re proud to share that our new health plan carrier for 2025 is United Healthcare (UHC). UHC has one of the largest networks in the U.S. with over 1.7 million providers and nearly 6,000 hospitals, making it easier to access care when and where you need it. UHC stood out for their specialty offerings, competitive cost structure, and exceptional employee experience.
We are shifting our pharmacy benefits from Elixir to Navitus RX. Navitus has innovative programs designed to provide the best value on your prescriptions, including comparative shopping capabilities that result in lower drug costs. Additionally, to minimize the disruption, there will be a six-month window through June 2025 where prior authorizations approved through Elixir will be honored through Navitus RX regardless of the coverage of medications under our new provider.
A Health Spending Account (HSA) is a great tool for our people to save on healthcare expenses and offers several significant tax advantages. Importantly, Optum and UHC have an existing partnership, so members will have their medical and HSA in one place, enabling them to pay claims with a single click. Additionally, for those who choose to invest their HSA balance, Optum requires no minimum balance and provides several different investment options.
We are extremely pleased to share that effective January 1, 2025, we’ll be moving to MetLife to support our leave of absence administration. MetLife is a world-class vendor in this offering and provides a high-touch concierge experience for employees. Employees will also be able to access an online portal where a customer service team trained on our plans can be accessed 24 hours a day. In addition to disability coverage, MetLife will be our provider for voluntary benefits such as Accident, Critical Illness, and Hospital Indemnity.
