EP 156: Benefits Provisions in the Proposed Congressional “Big, Beautiful Bill”
Update: 2025-05-20
Description
In this episode, Chase Cannon and Suzanne Spradley outline the latest proposed bill from the U.S. House of Representatives, potentially up for a vote in the coming weeks. Chase outlines a key element missing from the proposed bill ‒ caps, cuts, or elimination of the so-called employer tax exclusions for health insurance ‒ and explains why it’s important for employer health plan sponsors. Chase and Suzanne spend the rest of the episode describing potential changes to HSAs and HRAs, including flexibility with HSA eligibility, increases on HSA contribution limits, and a new vehicle (called a “CHOICE arrangement”) for reimbursing an employee’s individual policy premium.
