Medical, Dental, Vision, Wellness
DPR Construction offers you several medical plan options: the Cigna Open Access Plus plan, the Cigna High Deductible Health Plan with Health Savings Account and the Kaiser Permanente plan (CA employees only).
Cigna - Open Access Plus (OAP) Plan
The Open Access Plus Plan uses a nationwide network of providers and hospitals called Open Access Plus Providers. This plan offers you medical care from the provider of your choice. You maintain complete freedom of choice each time you seek medical care: (1) you choose a Network Open Access Plus provider or (2) you choose a non-network provider (a doctor who is outside of the OAP network). When you use network providers, your claims will be paid at a higher percentage. If you choose providers outside of the network, your claims will be paid at the out-of-network level. There is an annual deductible that must be met.
Cigna - High Deductible Health Plan (HDHP) With Health Savings Account (HSA)
The High Deductible Health Plan combined with Health Savings Account provides a high deductible medical plan with a tax advantaged health savings account, partially funded by DPR. The health savings account is used to pay for eligible medical expenses incurred before reaching the annual plan deductible.
Machine readable files are available in response to the federal Transparency in Coverage Rule and includes negotiated service rates and out-of-network allowed amounts between health plans and healthcare providers. The machine-readable files are formatted to allow researchers, regulators, and application developers to more easily access and analyze data.
Kaiser Permanente
The Kaiser plan is a traditional HMO plan available for California-based employees only. On this plan you can access all Kaiser physicians; some specialists you can self-refer, while others require a referral from your plan physician.
Additional Medical Support Programs
- MDLIVE - MDLIVE is a telehealth benefit that provides employees and their families access to a network of board-certified doctors, psychiatrists, and counselors via virtual visits - phone or video.
- Omada Health - Omada is a digital lifestyle change program (with access to a health coach) designed to help at-risk individuals combat weight-related chronic diseases.
- Hinge Health - Hinge Health offers a virtual physical therapy program (with access to behavioral therapy coach) designed to address chronic back, knee, hip, neck, of shoulder pain.
Dental Insurance
DPR Construction offers two dental plan options: the DHMO plan and the DPPO plan, both provided by Cigna Healthcare. Both plans offer comprehensive dental care and include orthodontia coverage for both adults and children.
Vision Insurance
Vision coverage is provided by Vision Service Plan (VSP). Vision coverage allows employees to receive eye exams, glasses and non-disposable contact lenses at low co-payments or discounts. Employees are not required to visit a participating doctor for benefits; however, using a non-VSP provider will affect the level of benefit received.
ExistWell

Distributions will be based on a combination of annual salary and years of service with DPR.
