Health plan changes for 2024
Rivian is committed to offering comprehensive, affordable benefits for you and your family. Based on your survey feedback, we’ve made some changes for 2024 to help control rising healthcare costs for both you and the company. Read on for more information.
The changes are outlined below. Before you enroll, you can also review these resources to help you decide which plan is right for you in 2024:
Blue Shield PPO plan changes
Blue Shield HSA plan changes
Kaiser plan changes
No medical opt-out credit
Updated employee contributions
What’s staying the same
There are no changes for 2024 in the coverage provided by the dental, vision, life insurance, disability, accident insurance and critical illness insurance plans. (Your contributions for dental and vision coverage are increasing.)
How to save money with a Health Savings Account (HSA)
A Health Savings Account (HSA) can help you save money to cover your health care needs today and well into the future. Consider these advantages of an HSA:
- Triple tax savings: You pay no federal taxes on contributions, interest earned, or withdrawals for eligible expenses. (If you live in California or New Jersey, you will owe state tax on contributions and earnings.)
- A contribution from Rivian: Depending on the medical plan you enroll in and who you cover, Rivian will put money in your HSA: $250–$750 with employee-only coverage, or $650–$1,800 if you also cover dependents.
- The money is always yours: Unused funds roll over from year to year, and you can take all the money in your HSA with you if you leave Rivian.
- Invest your HSA funds: When you have more than $1,000 in your account, you can invest your balance to help grow your savings—with no federal tax on earnings.
- Flex the way you save—and spend: You can start, stop or change your HSA contribution at any time. And you can choose to use your funds for current health care expenses, or grow your account balance to use in the future—even in retirement.

Get expert help choosing the right health plans
Choosing the medical, dental and vision plans that are best for you may come down to a few broad questions, like how much you expect to use your plan, and whether you prefer to pay less for coverage from each paycheck or pay less when you get health care services
But like so many decisions, the real value may be in looking at the details that are specific to you. Do you have a chronic condition that requires ongoing care? Do you regularly use prescription drugs that can be expensive? Are you planning to have a baby or need a surgical procedure next year?
To see how the Blue Shield, Delta Dental, EyeMed and VSP plans stack up, talk to the experts at Collective Health. You—or your spouse or domestic partner—can tell your Collective Health member advocate about your personal situation, and they will explain how each plan will cover the needs of your family.
