Exciting Updates for 2026

As part of our commitment to making Ericsson Enterprise Wireless Solutions the best place to work, we are continuously looking for ways to bring you benefits that exceed expectations, in selection and value. Here are some changes and improvements for the new plan year:

Aligning with Ericsson Benefits

  • We are working to fully align with Ericsson’s benefit programs, and in 2026, you’ll see lower deductibles and decreased out-of-pocket expenses for the Aetna Healthfund Plan, as well as some competitive changes to our vision benefits.

All Aetna Health Plans

  • Starting January 1, your preventive care benefits will reset every calendar year instead of every 365 days.

Aetna Healthfund Plan

  • Starting in 2026, there will not be an individual deductible or individual out-of-pocket maximum for members of a family covered under the Aetna Healthfund Plan. This means the whole family deductible and/or out-of-pocket-maximum must be met before the plan pays for any individual family member’s care.
  • Deductibles are changing to $2,000 Employee Only / $4,000 Employee + One or more dependents (was $3,300/$6,600).
  • In-network out-of-pocket maximum is changing to $4,000 Employee Only / $8,000 Employee + One or more dependents (was $5,000/$10,000).

Aetna Choice Plan

  • In-Network out of pocket maximum will change to $3,500 individual and $7,000 family (was $3,000/$6,000).
  • There are no changes to the low deductible of $1,000 individual / $2,000 family.

Women’s Health Resources

We’ve expanded your Aetna medical plan benefits to include specialized care for women’s health, perimenopause, and menopause. This is in addition to the current Hinge Health digital program which includes Women’s Pelvic Health support by utilizing a personalized care plan that addresses unique symptoms at various life stages. 

  • MinuteClinic Women’s Health Services – Convenient, in-person and virtual care for mental health, reproductive health, screenings, menopause support, and more.

  • Gennev – The first nationwide virtual menopause clinic, led by OB/GYNs and Registered Dietitian Nutritionists, offering personalized treatment plans and symptom relief.

  • Midi Health – Virtual, expert care for perimenopause and menopause, with personalized Care Plans, prescriptions, lifestyle coaching, and ongoing support.

Two Vision Plan Options

You now have more options when it comes to vision benefits, with two plans available: the Base VSP Plan and the Premier VSP Plan.

  • Both VSP options offer coverage for eye exams, eyeglasses, and contacts.
  • Both plans also offer VSP Lightcare which allows you to use the frame or contact lens allowance to purchase non prescription sunglasses or blue light filtering glasses.
  • You may choose extra in-network coverage and increase the frequency you receive services and materials by electing the Premier option.
  • If you enroll in vision coverage, you will pay the full cost of the benefit. These changes align with Ericsson’s benefit plan structure.

HSA Contributions

Enterprise Wireless Solutions will continue to provide an HSA contribution to help cover your out-of-pocket expenses and to help you save for future healthcare costs.

  • The Enterprise Wireless Solutions HSA contribution will change to $1,000 individual / $2,000 family in 2026 (was $1,250/$2,500). This change is due to the lower deductibles and out-of-pocket maximums that are being implemented for 2026 and to further harmonize with Ericsson benefits.

Voluntary Benefits

  • Get extra protection for you and your family through MetLife accident, critical illness, hospital indemnity, MetLife Legal, and Allstate identity protection with easy payroll deductions. Additional protection is also available through MetLife for your home, auto, and pets.
