STATEMENT
Invitrogen Corporation offers an Executive Health Plan to provide top executives with an annual comprehensive health exam. The plan works as a supplement to Company sponsored group health benefits to enhance and encourage executive well-being.
ELIGIBILITY
You are eligible for benefits if you are classified in the Executive Leadership Career Band as of January 1, 2004. Employees joining the eligible group after January 1, 2004 will be eligible for coverage on the first of the month coincident with or following the effective date of joining the eligible group. Coverage is available for employee only.
PLAN BENEFITS
A comprehensive physical examination and related tests (see attached schedule) will be provided on an annual basis. The type of procedures provided may vary in frequency based on your age, gender, physical condition, and medical history. One executive health examination will be provided each calendar year. Benefits not utilized in a calendar year do not accumulate or carry forward into future years.
For non-Carlsbad based employees
In order to minimize travel expense related to your executive physical, every effort should be made to arrange your appointment in conjunction with a business-related trip to Carlsbad.
In lieu of utilizing the services provided at the Scripps Center for Executive Health, you may arrange for a comparable physical exam at a medical center in your immediate geographic region. Arrangements must be approved in advance by Corporate Benefits. Once approved, your expenses should be submitted for payment to Corporate Benefits.
COST
Invitrogen will pay the full cost of your coverage under this plan. Benefits you receive under this Plan are not included as taxable income.
PLAN ADMINISTRATION
The Executive Health Plan is administered by Corporate Benefits through an arrangement with:
