Health Insurance Reimbursements via an ICHRA

3 Graphic Visual

More Choice, More Flexibility

Health insurance isn't one-size-fits-all. While many businesses are well served by traditional group coverage, it isn't always the right fit. Between rising renewal costs, participation requirements, distributed teams, and changing workforce needs, some businesses need more flexibility in how they offer health benefits.

That's why Justworks is excited to introduce health insurance reimbursements through an Individual Coverage HRA (ICHRA), powered by our integrated partner Thatch. Instead of selecting a health plan for everyone, employers set a monthly budget and employees choose the individual health insurance plan that works best for them.

With the addition of ICHRA, Justworks now supports all three major health coverage models—Small Group, Large Group, and Individual health plans—in one place, giving businesses more ways to find the right fit today and adapt as needs change over time.

How It Works

1. Choose a Budget

Set a monthly allowance that works for your business and adjust yearly as needs change. Tailor budgets by team, location, or employment status so everyone gets coverage that makes sense. And, if employees don’t use the entire amount, leftover funds can go towards eligible expenses like contact lenses or therapy.

2. Employees Pick Plans

Your team chooses coverage that fits their doctors, networks, and prescriptions, while you avoid the headache of deciding for everyone.

3. We Handle the Rest

We’ve partnered with Thatch to take care of the setup, reimbursements, compliance, and reporting. They’ll also guide employees through open enrollment and help them narrow down their choices, so you’re not stuck playing middleman. 

As always, we’re here 24/7 if you have any questions.
