Our Health, Dental and Vision providers each have apps available for download.

Our third-party administrator, Alliant, has created an employee benefit app called BEN-IQ.  The app provides an overview of what the County offers, what services and procedures are covered, annual deductibles, and includes a cost of coverage calculator.  Look for the little Einstien and download the app.

There are no changes to the plans for Anthem Blue Cross, Delta Dental, or Vision Service Plan.  Please refer to the Employee Benefits page for detailed information on your coverage.
