Consumer, Work, & Business Savings
Health & Dental Spending Account
Olympia Benefits Inc. provides a new option for technicians and technologists who are working on contract or as consultants, and for small and medium-sized firms. This program allows you to have your company pay for your family's medical and dental expenses and then deduct 100% of the cost as a business expense. Unlike insurance plans with premiums, with the Olympia Health & Dental plan you pay only for what employees actually spend (plus administration costs). The plan provides complete coverage and impressive tax savings both personally and corporately.
