New Rules On Health Reimbursement Arrangements

New Rules On Health Reimbursement Arrangements

Author: Lipscomb and Pitts Insurance, Sarah Gillespie | Producer: Andrew Bartolotta December 20, 2018 Duration: 14:32
In October 2017, President Trump issued an Executive Order calling on the departments to take action on a handful of specific tasks, one of which was to expand the use of Health Reimbursement Arrangements (HRAs). We finally saw proposed guidance on this in late October 2018 when two new types of HRAs were introduced. Listen in to learn more about these proposed HRAs and how they might impact employers.
