2026 Medical, dental and vision coverage
These are the 2026 medical plan employee contributions.
Your contributions are made on a before-tax basis and deducted from your pay each pay period, which reduces your taxable income.
If you cover a domestic partner or domestic partner's child who does not qualify as a tax dependent, the value of their coverage will be considered imputed income.
