White Paper

21st Century Cures Act Would Give Small Employers Greater Use of HRAs

 
Passed swiftly by Congress, the 21st Century Cures Act (H.R. 34) seeks to hasten cures for killer diseases, among other things. President Obama is expected to sign the bill on Tuesday, December 13. One of those other things would seem to advance a goal of the GOP’s plan for further healthcare reform, known as “A Better Way,” which is to encourage the use of health reimbursement arrangements (HRAs). Whether this new HRA provision will survive President-elect Trump’s “repeal and replace” plans remains to be seen. But for now, if signed into law, small employers would have a new tool for designing health plan options for their employees.

The Act creates “qualified small employer health reimbursement arrangement” under Internal Revenue Code Section 9831(d)(2), or, if you like acronyms, the “QSEHRA.” For plan years beginning after December 31, 2016, “small employers” can adopt a QSEHRA for their employees.
