Benefits

At AirNet Systems, Inc. we offer a flexible, comprehensive benefit program designed to provide financial protection and peace of mind - for now and in the future. Our benefit program is designed to provide both value and flexibility. AirNet shares the cost of some of these benefits. The program provides the greatest value for the benefit dollars that the company and our team members spend.

Certain benefits require completion of 60 days of continuous full-time employment (regularly scheduled work-week of 30 hours or more).

This information summarizes our benefit plans. The terms of the actual Summary Plan Documents, contracts or other applicable documents such as the AirNet Team Member Handbook will govern in all cases. Plans described are subject to change. AirNet reserves the right to amend or terminate any benefit program, require or increase team member contributions, or restrict or reduce any benefits or eligibility.

 

 

 

Group Health Insurance
Group heath insurance coverage, including medical, prescription, dental and vision coverage, is offered to team members and their eligible dependents. Team member partner with AirNet in paying premiums for coverage. Team members are eligible for coverage the first day of the month following 60 days of continuous full-time employment.

Our Medical Coverage provides a broad range of medical-related services within a Preferred Provider Organization Network. The plan provides the flexibility to seek care from any provider, without referrals. However, care provided out-of-network will result in reduced benefits, higher out-of-pocket costs and more administration. Most in-network services are provided with reasonable out-of-pocket co-payments or co-insurance levels.

The Prescription Drug Plan offers options of using in-network pharmacies, non-network pharmacies or mail-order home delivery at reasonable out-of-pocket co-payments or co-insurance levels.

Dental Coverage includes benefits for preventive/diagnostic services, basic restorative services and major restorative services. Care may be sought from any licensed dentist, however if a network dentist is used, out-of-pocket costs can be lower and administrative claims filing will be eliminated.

Our Vision Benefits are designed to assist with necessary eye exams, lenses, frames and contact lenses. Claims are reimbursed based on a schedule of benefits.

 

Section 125 Programs
The Section 125 program is a benefit governed by the Internal Revenue Service which provides opportunities for team members to tax defer insurance premiums and pay other eligible health care expenses that are not covered elsewhere. The Premium Conversion Account allows health insurance premiums to be deducted from team members' pay pre-tax. Through the Flexible Spending Medical Account, participants may save up to $2,500 annually through pre-tax payroll deductions. These funds are then reimbursed back by filing claims for eligible health care expenses not covered by medical, dental prescription or vision plans.
