Learn about many of the great benefits available to help you grow your health career at The UVM Health Network-Central Vermont Medical Center.

What Makes Our Benefit Program Special?

Our employee medical plan premiums have only increased once in the past four years, primarily because of our transition to a self-funded plan four years ago and the implementation of an excellent wellness program. We also established two Express Care locations as an affordable alternative to the Emergency Room for urgent but not life threatening emergency medical needs outside of primary care hours.
