We know employer-provided health benefits can be confusing and costly. An Individual Coverage Health Reimbursement Arrangement (ICHRA) offers your business flexibility and employees tailored coverage—all while keeping costs predictable and tax-advantaged.
1. Flexibility for Your Team & Business
Customize your benefit strategy by setting reimbursement amounts that work for you—no minimums, no caps. You decide who’s eligible (full-time, part-time, by department, role, or geography) and what they’re covered for. It’s benefits on your terms
2.Boosted Attraction & Retention
Stand out in the hiring market with a benefit that allows staff to personally pick the plan that fits them. No more “group plan one-size-fits-all.” This choice increases satisfaction, boosts morale, and helps your best employees stay
3. Predictable Costs & Lower Risk
Eliminate the surprise of annual premium hikes. You set your monthly reimbursement limits once, and you stick by them. No more worrying about a “bad claims year” coming back to bite your bottom line.
4. ACA & IRS Compliant
ICHRA satisfies IRS and ACA guidelines. We’ll make safe-harbor calculations based on employee income, age, and location to keep you compliant.
5. Tax-Savvy & Cost-Efficient
Employer reimbursement under ICHRA isn’t counted as wages—meaning no payroll taxes, and contributions qualify as a business expense. Plus, employees aren’t taxed for the reimbursements, and can deduct anything above what you contribute through pre-tax arrangements.
