Employee Benefits at Methodist Health

This is a brief summary of benefits available to full-time and part-time eligible hourly employees; the costs for these benefits are shared between the Hospital and the employee. In all cases the Summary Plan Description will define eligibility and benefit limitations.

Dental

Coverage is available to employees and their covered dependents through a large dental network. All dental specialties are included. We offer a basic and premium plan. The premium plan provides coverage for extras, such as cosmetic bleaching and orthodontics for children.
