what is a funded hra
A Health Reimbursement Arrangement (HRA), commonly referred to as a Health Reimbursement Account, is an IRS approved, employer-funded, tax-advantaged employer health benefit plan that reimburses employees for out-of-pocket medical expenses and individual health insurance premiums. A Health Reimbursement Arrangement is not health insurance. A Health Reimbursement Arrangement allows the employer to make contributions to an employee's account and provide reimbursement for eligible expenses. An HRA plan is an excellent way to supplement health insurance benefits and allow employees to pay for a wide range of medical expenses not covered by insurance.
