Summary

Custom Health Option and Individual Care Expense Arrangement Act or the CHOICE Arrangement Act This bill provides statutory authority for regulations that allow employers to offer individual coverage health reimbursement arrangements (ICHRAs). Under ICHRAs, employers agree to reimburse employees for incurred medical expenses up to a limit for a specified period (e.g., a calendar year), and employees obtain their own individual coverage that meets certain requirements of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (coverage of preventive services and no annual or lifetime limits). Payments or reimbursements under an ICHRA are tax-exempt and may only be made for medical care provided when the employee was covered by a plan that meets the requirements. Employees may also pair ICHRAs with Medicare coverage. In 2019, the Department of the Treasury, the Department of Labor, and the Department of Health and Human Services issued regulations that allow employers to offer employees ICHRAs if certain conditions are met: (1) the employer offers ICHRAs to all employees in the same class (e.g., all full-time employees) without the choice of an employer-sponsored group health plan, and (2) the employer offers the ICHRA to all employees within the class on the same terms (i.e., the amount of available funds and the terms and conditions of the benefits). The regulations also specify certain notice and verification requirements with respect to ICHRAs. The bill provides statutory authority for these regulations and generally refers to ICHRAs as custom health option and individual care expense arrangements .
