Benefits forPierce Group Benefits
Your job means more than just a paycheck. ABC Demo Schools offers eligible employees a comprehensive and valuable benefits plan arranged by Pierce Group Benefits.
What To Know
You have 30 days from your date of hire to enroll in benefits. Please note that you must call and complete your enrollment with a PGB Benefits Representative, or self-enroll online, within your eligibility period.
Remember, this is your only opportunity to enroll in benefits unless you experience a qualifying life event outside of the eligibility period; otherwise, you'll have to wait until the next annual Open Enrollment period to enroll in benefits.
If you are transferring from one PGB client to another, some voluntary benefits may be eligible for transfer. Please call the PGB Service Center to complete your enrollment with a Benefits Representative so that eligible existing policies are transferred to your new employer.

Health Savings Accounts (HSA)
Stretch your dollars further and put more money in your pocket. Health Savings Accounts empower you to save more, spend smarter and invest in your healthcare.
HSAs are tax-advantaged employee-owned accounts that let you save pre-tax dollars for future qualified medical expenses. You can invest HSAs—and funds never expire.
Am I Eligible For A Health Savings Account?
To enroll in a HSA, employees must already be enrolled in an HSA-qualifying high deductible health plan (HDHP).
The Value for Employees
– Enjoy Lower Health Plan Premiums: HSA-qualified health plans offer lower premiums, enabling you to save potentially thousands every year.
– Keep Your Premium Savings: Just put the extra money you would’ve paid toward traditional premiums into your HSA. Voila! Long-term savings.
– Triple Tax Savings: Every dollar an employee contributes to an HSA lowers their taxable income, funds grow tax-free, and withdrawals for qualified expenses are tax-free.
– Roll Over Funds: Unlike Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA), you own your HSA. That means your entire HSA balance rolls over every year—even if you change health plans, retire, or leave your employer.
Eligible HSA Expenses
– Pain relievers
– Doctor visits
– Glasses and contact lenses
– Cold and cough medicine
– Menstrual care products
– Chiropractic care
– Insulin Testing Supplies
– Sleep aids
– Shoe inserts
– Sunscreen
– Ambulance
– Dental work and orthodontia
