Federal law allows employers to reimburse employees for their monthly premiums for individual health insurance policies, as long as it's done through a compliant health reimbursement arrangement (HRA).

There are two types of HRAs that businesses can offer to reimburse employees for their individual health plans: the qualified small employer HRA (QSEHRA) and the individual coverage HRA (ICHRA).

With an HRA, employers can take care of their employees while staying within their budgets. By offering a QSEHRA or an ICHRA, employers can reimburse employees for their individual health insurance coverage on a pre-tax basis.
