Taking good care of all those who are part of the Holy Cross Hospital family is one of our most important priorities. You will find a complete range of employment benefits—for the peace-of-mind and satisfaction of you and your loved ones.

Medical
Benefit eligible employees have the option of coverage under the Kaiser Health Maintenance Organization (HMO) or a choice of the two Holy Cross Hospital medical plan options. Both Holy Cross Hospital medical plans are Preferred Provider Organizations (PPO’s). You have a choice of the High Option PPO or the Standard Option PPO.

Both the high and standard options use the Private Healthcare Systems (PHCS) network. This is a national network that will provide you with a large panel of providers from which to choose.

Employees who do not elect coverage can “opt-out” of medical benefits and receive a credit allowance to purchase other benefits or take as taxable income, after validating coverage elsewhere.

Dental
Two dental plan options for our benefit eligible employees – Delta Dental Premier/Traditional and the Delta Dental PPO plan.
