healthcare benefits

Employer-provided medical coverage

Healthcare benefits are forms of compensation beyond wages that help cover medical expenses.

Typically provided by employers, they include health insurance, dental and vision coverage, prescription drug plans, and sometimes wellness programs or health savings accounts.

The job doesn't pay much, but the healthcare benefits are excellent.

In countries without universal healthcare, employer-provided benefits often determine access to affordable medical care.
