Your Medical Plan Choice

Think about the medical plan that makes the most sense for you. Are you relatively healthy, don’t plan to visit the doctor often and want to keep your premium costs down?  You may want to consider the Low Premium/High Deductible Plan and pair it with a Health Savings Account, which allows you to save pre-tax money to pay for eligible expenses tax-free. Or, depending on where you live, Kaiser HMO might also make sense. For more information on the Northrop Grumman medical plan options, click here.

The ALEX^® benefits tool can help you choose your “best-fit” medical plan based on your information. Employees who have enrolled in ALEX’s recommended plan are often pleasantly surprised at the value and savings of taking ALEX’s advice. ALEX is available on NetBenefits.

Save on your medical costs by participating in the My Well-being Incentive program. Here’s how it works:

• Get a $500 well-being incentive (if enrolled in most medical plans) if you complete an annual physical and health risk assessment
• Get another $500 if your enrolled spouse gets an annual physical and completes the questionnaire
• If you enroll in one of the high-deductible health plans, you receive the incentive as a contribution to an HSA 
• If you're not eligible to contribute to an HSA or don’t enroll in an HSA-eligible plan, you'll receive the incentive as a premium credit

For more information, read the Wellbeing Incentives FAQs.

At Northrop Grumman we understand that employees sometimes require flexibility in their work schedules. Our Flex Work policies allow you to set flexible hours if you have a midday appointment, child care needs or otherwise need to spend time away from work. Eligible employees can also enroll in the 9/80 work schedule, which consists of working eight 9-hour days, one 8-hour day, and getting one day off in a 2-week period. Parental leave is also available for both parents for up to two weeks.
