Lehigh Valley Benefits---RNs really get 50% match?

by lee1

Physicians get an average total pay of $244,605 at this hospital headquartered in Allentown, Pennsylvania. Actually, this facility includes three hospitals, eight community health centers and a network of 400 physicians and physician practices. In addition to top-notch pay, the benefits are also good. Employees get a 50 percent match to their 403(b) retirement plans. Lehigh has the National Magnet hospital designation of nursing excellence, acquired by just 5 percent of hospitals in the country.

My health system has 403b plan -- matches .50 cents for every dollar contributed up to 6% of our salary.
After 10 years, matches .60 cents per dollar. monies vested after 3 years. We get to pick from several plans to invest

I've invest the max each year and seen retirement grow well overall except for 2008 tanking. I get my 10 service award this week!
