Why More Employers Are Turning to ICHRA Plans
Individual Coverage Health Reimbursement Arrangements (ICHRAs) are becoming an increasingly popular option for business owners. These plans are gaining notable attention from small business owners, employers, and even employees.
An ICHRA is an employer-funded account that allows for tax-free contributions to reimburse employees for eligible medical expenses—including individual health insurance premiums. It’s a modern approach to providing health benefits, offering flexibility for employees while allowing employers to better manage costs.
Why Consider an ICHRA for Your Business?
Employers might find ICHRAs especially appealing if they are:
- Looking to save on health insurance costs
- Struggling to meet participation requirements tied to traditional group plans
- Interested in exploring tax-saving opportunities
- Wanting to offer employees the flexibility to choose their own health plans
If you’re an employer and any of the points above resonate with you, it might be time to explore your options.
