The district provides vision coverage through Horizon Vista/Davis Vision. Employees who are enrolled in Direct Access 15 or the Horizon POS are automatically enrolled in Horizon Vista/Davis Vision XV. Employees who are enrolled in Direct Access 10 or the Horizon 15/25 are automatically enrolled in Horizon Vista/Davis Vision X. Those employees who are enrolled in the Omnia Plan have vision insurance within that plan. Horizon Vista/Davis Vision View Network mailed cards to everyone's home in July 2017. Unfortunately many employees assumed that they received junk mail and destroyed them. The member ID number for Davis Vision is the same as your Horizon member ID number on your health insurance card. So if you do not have your Davis Vision card you may inform your eye doctor of your member ID number and let them know that it is through Davis Vision.

The Egg Harbor Township School District offers full time employees hired before July 1, 2020 medical/vision and prescription benefits for the employee and the employee’s family at a cost dictated by the State of NJ under the provisions of Chapter 78, PL 2011. The employee benefit contribution is a percentage of the Board’s cost of your medical and prescription benefits utilizing a sliding scale based on your salary. There are Employee Cost Charts posted just above to assist you in determining the amount of employee benefit contributions that will be deducted from your pay. The district offers seven different medical plans. You can find the plan designs in detail above as well (click on plan designs). The Board will pay the cost of the Direct 15 plan (less employee benefit contributions). If you select a plan with a higher cost to the Board you will also be responsible to pay cost of the plan upgrade, in addition to your increased mandated benefit contributions. The plan upgrade cost would be the difference between the cost of the plan you chose and the cost of the Direct Access 15 plan. You can find the costs of the plans in the Employee Cost Chart as well. If the plan costs less there is no fee.
Chapter 44 requires all school districts to implement a plan called the New Jersey Educators Health Plan (EHP) or the Garden State Health Plan (GSHP). If you were hired ON or AFTER July 1, 2020, or eligible to receive benefits as of that date, you will have the option to enroll in either the EHP or the GSHP or waive coverage.
The medical plan that you select will include vision insurance through Horizon Davis Vision. You will receive separate cards for Davis Vision. Your Davis Vision member ID will be the same as your Horizon member ID, but will be through the affiliated company, not Horizon directly.
The District offers all full time employees, and their family members, dental insurance through Delta Dental of NJ at no cost to the employee. Children cannot be enrolled in the dental insurance program until they reach two years of age. You may enroll children within 60 days of their second birthday, or during any subsequent open enrollment period.
