     TAKE THE HIGH ROAD

    Take a Cab and Send the Bill to Us! 

    Deer Oaks remains concerned about the safety of its EAP participants and others. As part of this goal, Deer Oaks reimburses eligible employees and their dependents for cab fare in the event that they are incapacitated due to impairment by a substance or extreme emotional condition. Such circumstances may include:

    • Overconsumption of alcohol
    • Drowsiness due to medication
    • Extremely upset/troubled over a situation (i.e. receives bad news at work, is laid off or let go, learns of a death in the family, finalizes a divorce, etc.)

    The process is simple, and like all other EAP services, confidential. Simply call our Helpline for instructions on how to submit your receipt. It may take up to 45 days for reimbursement. Receipts are required to be submitted within 60 days of the service date. This service covers cab fares up to $45.00 and does not include tips.
