Benefits
InterCare offers a generous and complete benefit package to eligible employees, including paid vacation and sick time, paid holidays, medical, dental, vision and prescription coverage, short-term disability, life insurance, 401K, tuition reimbursement, and an Employee Assistance Program.
InterCare strives to provide employees with a competitive benefits package. Each year, we work with outside experts to understand what a competitive benefit package "looks like" for the coming year - balancing benefit trends in the marketplace and analyzing the claims we experience.
InterCare also manages the benefits we offer from a cost standpoint, keeping our employees in mind. This is part of our fiscal responsibility.
