Health Insurance
BestSelf offers Univera medical insurance coverage for both individuals and families, with a variety of options to fit your needs. Premium charges to the employee of 0-25% vary according to the type of plan you choose. This insurance is available to all employees at 50% full time equivalent (FTE) or more.
Dental and Vision Coverage
Our optional dental and vision coverage is provided through MetLife. The plan is 100% employee paid and open to all employees at 50% FTE.
Life Insurance
All employees at 80% FTE are provided with Group Term Life Insurance through MetLife. The coverage amount is 2 times the annual salary rate. Premiums are paid by BestSelf. You may also purchase additional term life insurance for yourself, your spouse and children if they qualify.

BestSelf pays for a LTD policy which provides benefits to you in the event of a disability lasting longer than 26 weeks.
Profit-Sharing Retirement Plan
BestSelf contributes, on your behalf, to a pension plan managed by the Principal Financial Group. The rate of contribution is determined each year but has traditionally been 5% of your annual salary. All employees become eligible upon completing six months of employment, and join the pension plan on January 1st following this eligibility.
Tax-Deferred Annuity (401K)
This plan offers you the opportunity to save money for retirement while reducing your tax base.
