Saving 20% with Partial Self-Funding
What is a health reimbursement arrangement (HRA)?
A health reimbursement arrangement (HRA) is an IRS-approved, employer-funded health benefit used to reimburse employees for out-of-pocket medical expenses.
- Many organizations prefer HRAs over traditional group health insurance because of the budget control and tax advantages.
- Less experienced brokers are not familiar with HRAs so you may not be familiar with them, either.
- An HRA is not for everyone, but it’s an option we recommend every group explore.
- This simple concept can save your business 20 percent or more on insurance premiums.
Why consider an HRA?
- Simple and cost-efficient
- Lowers insured Medical & Rx premiums by 20% or more
- Increased flexibility
- More personalized health benefits
- Not subject to significant, annual rate hikes
A Large Credit Union purchased a $4,000 / $8,000 medical plan that replaced a $500 / $1,000 deductible plan and used the premium savings to
reimburse employees, using a Health Reimbursement Arrangement (HRA), for out-of-pocket deductible expenses that exceeded their previous $500 / $1,000 deductible.
Our client saved over $65,000 annually or 13% without reducing benefits.
