Medical
Looking after your health is important, and prevention is better than cure, which is why 100% of the cost of preventive services is covered by all of our plans. We offer three Medical plans through Cigna.
Prescription Drug coverage is administered by Express Scripts. Read more about Prescription Drug coverage.
How does it work?
You can choose between the HDHP Silver, the HDHP Gold and the Core Plan.
All three plans use the Cigna Open Access Plus network and cover 100% of the cost of preventive care services, like annual physicals and routine immunizations.
The way you pay for care is different with each plan.
Core Plan
The Core Plan has set copays for some services and coinsurance (after the annual deductible is met) for others. Copays do not apply toward your annual deductible, so you will pay copays until you reach your annual out-of-pocket maximum.
This plan has higher paycheck deductions than the HDHPs.HDHP Silver and HDHP Gold
With both HDHPs, you pay the full contracted rates for medical services and prescriptions until you meet your annual deductible.
Once you’ve met your annual deductible:
- HDHP Silver: The plan pays for 100% of covered services for the rest of the year.
- HDHP Gold: You and the plan both pay a portion of your expenses for covered services (coinsurance) until you reach your annual out-of-pocket maximum. After that, the plan pays for 100% of covered services for the rest of the year.
You can use a Health Savings Account to pay for qualified expenses. Spitzer Industries make an initial deposit into your HSA to get you started:
- $250 if you choose individual coverage
- $500 if you cover yourself plus any dependents.
You can use a Health Savings Account to pay for qualified expenses.

The Core and HDHP Silver Plans provide in-network coverage only.
HDHP Gold is the only plan that provides out-of-network coverage.
These plans have lower paycheck deductions than the Core Plan.
