health benefits

Medical coverage perks

Health benefits are advantages to physical or mental well-being: Regular exercise has significant health benefits.

The phrase also refers to employer-provided medical coverage—insurance, dental plans, vision care: The job doesn't pay much, but the health benefits are excellent.

In this sense, benefits alone often suffices: Does the position come with benefits?
