What is a Defined Contribution Plan?

AffinityChoice is an employer-supported voluntary group insurance benefit plan. It is often described as a “defined contribution” plan because the decision of how much the employer will contribute to subsidize the employees’ premiums is made by the employer, not by the insurance company. The minimum is $25 per participating employee per month.

It is then up to each employee to choose the benefits for which they want to enroll. The employer’s contribution is applied to reduce the employee’s cost.

Defining their own contribution allows employers to control costs by establishing a fixed, budgetable monthly expense.

Think of your monthly premium contribution as a recurring gift card to help your employees better afford their chosen benefits.

Pre-Tax Employer Contributions

It’s easy to enable your employees’ contributions to come out of their paychecks before taxes.  All you need to do is set up a Section 125 Premium Only Plan. 
 
Employees can save 20% to 40% of their premiums depending on their personal tax bracket.  You save as well because pre-taxing their contributions means that you do not have to pay the 7.65% FICA (Social Security and Medicare) tax.
 
It’s worth doing.

Want to Add Health Insurance?

Consider Offering an ICHRA Plan

ICHRA is an acronym for Individual Coverage Health Reimbursement Arrangement.

ICHRAs are a new solution for employers looking to help employees and their families get health insurance without breaking the bank.

It’s simple.  Each eligible participating employee receives a monthly tax-free allowance from the employer. The allowance is a fixed, bugetable amount determined by the employer. It never increases unless the employer decides to change it. Employer contributions are treated as a business expense.

Traditional employer group health insurance policies typically offer only one or two plan options from a single insurance company – pretty much one-size-fits-all. And, the employer’s cost usually increases every year.

Instead, with an ICHRA, employees can choose any Affordable Care Act (ACA)-compliant individual or family policy from any insurer. Employees use their allowance to help pay the premium for the policy that best suits their needs and budget.

Benefits that just work.
