SUMMARY:Measure Plan Affordability
DESCRIPTION:Employers that are An Applicable Large Employer\nThere are three safe harbors that an employer may use to determine affordability for purposes of the employer shared responsibility provisions. Employers are allowed to choose from using either the Form W-2 wages\, an employee’s rate of pay or the federal poverty limit to make their affordability determination. The contribution percentage to determine affordability for Plan Years starting in 2024 is 8.39% \n2024 percentage is a significant decrease from previous years.\n“A” Penalty Adjusted for inflation: $2\,970 for 2024 times total number of FTEs after the first 30 are removed for relief.\n“B” Penalty Adjusted for inflation: $4\,460 for 2024 times the total number of ACA FTEs who receive the subsidy in the Marketplace (max penalty is capped at the “A” penalty)

SUMMARY:PCORI fee
DESCRIPTION:Employers with self-insured health plans must pay an annual fee to fund the Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute (PCORI). Self-insured health plans that are subject to PCORI fees include self-funded medical plans\, as well as HRAs offered in conjunction with fully insured group medical plans. HRAs offered with self-insured group medical plans are not subject to separate PCORI fees if the HRA and the medical plan have the same plan sponsor and plan year.\nEmployers use IRS Form 720 to report and pay PCORI fees\, which are due by July 31 of the year following the last day of the plan year.\n*The PCORI fees originally applied for plan years ending before Oct. 1\, 2019. However\, a 2019 spending resolution reinstated PCORI fees through 2029. As a result\, self-insured health plans must continue to pay these fees through 2029.
