Medical Insurance

The City offers a high deductible health insurance plan (HDHP) to eligible employees and their qualifying dependent(s) as of the first of the month following 60 days of full-time employment. All employees are required to pay a five percent (5%) monthly health insurance premium, which will be waived if the employee completes an annual biometric Health Risk Appraisal (HRA). Employees and qualifying dependents are responsible for any deductibles, co-payments, or other out-of-pocket costs associated with care received under the provisions of the plan.

Dental Insurance

The City provides dental insurance to eligible employees and their qualifying dependent(s) as of the first of the month following 60 days of full-time employment. Dental services are provided through Dental Associates. There is no premium for dental insurance.

Vision Insurance

The City provides an option for vision insurance to eligible employees and their qualifying dependent(s) as of the first of the month following 60 days of full-time employment. Coverage is available to employees at their own expense.

Health Savings Account

The health insurance plan offered by the City qualifies for a Health Savings Account (HSA) as defined by the IRS. Johnson Bank has waived the fees normally associated with opening and maintaining an HSA for all City employees who are enrolled in a qualifying insurance plan. Payroll deduction (pre-taxed) is only available to those employees who hold their HSA with Johnson Bank.

Health and Wellness Clinic

Employees (and covered spouses) who elect health insurance coverage and complete the annual HRA may utilize the City’s onsite Health and Wellness Clinic, which is staffed by a Nurse Practitioner and Medical Assistant. Services provided by the Clinic may be subject to a co-payment, as prescribed by City policy and IRS guidelines.
