Welcome to another installment of the LSS Benefits Orientation recorded presentation series. This presentation focuses on our LSS dental benefits. I’m Denis, and I’m Kaitlin. This presentation will focus on the features of our LSS dental plans that full-time employees are eligible to take part in, with coverage beginning the first day of the month in which they hit their 90th day of employment. Part-time employees may also become eligible to enroll in these benefits if they average 30 or more paid hours during an ACA measurement period.

LSS offers two different dental plans to meet the unique needs of all staff and their families. For some employees, the benefits offered in the Basic Plan is what they want or need, and the lower prices for their employee premiums reflect the lesser level of benefits. For other employees, the benefits offered in the Enhanced Plan what they want or need, and the higher prices for employee premiums are worth it for them. The next couple of slides will show you some information about each plan’s benefits and costs. This info can be found on our LSS benefits website – www dot lssliving dot Org back slash benefits – along with a lot more information that you can always access from any computer with an internet connection.
