Utah Small Business Health Insurance Benefit Options

Utah small businesses have many options for providing health benefits to their employees.

The most common but also the most expensive option is to implement a group health insurance plan.

Prices vary depending on age. However, according to from the Kaiser Family Foundation the average annual cost for employer-sponsored group medical insurance covering a worker’s family in 2021 will be $19,844.

Utah employees contribute an average of $6,773, or nearly $600 more than the national average, towards their health insurance costs.

Utah businesses have other options that can reduce their costs significantly. These include:

  • Health Savings Accounts (HSAs)
  • Health reimbursement arrangements (HRAs)
  • Direct primary care memberships
  • Health Sharing Programs 

The best strategy to use for your small business depends on a number of factors, including the size of your company, your budget, and your employees’ age and medical needs.

Utah Small Business Health Insurance: Geographical Considerations

It’s important to consider the unique healthcare environment in Utah, which includes not only busy cities like Logan and St. George but also more rural areas like Vernal, Blanding, and Salt Lake City.

Utah business owners must therefore carefully consider how they distribute their workforce throughout the state. It is not in the best interest of executives at company headquarters in St. George, Utah to choose an HMO which restricts employees and their families from seeing doctors outside of its network when many of their employees live and work in Enterprise.

Utah Small Business Group Health Insurance

Most Utah employers choose traditional group health insurance.

It’s also one of the most expensive.

Here’s what it looks like:

Employers contract with a third party insurance provider, usually a for profit corporation, to provide health insurance benefits to their employees and if they wish – also for their family members.

The Affordable Care Act requires that employers with 50 employees or more offer ACA-qualified health coverage to all employees working more than 30 hours a week. Otherwise, they will be penalized.

The health insurance policy must include the ten essential coverages (MECs) required by the Affordable Care Act. These are:

  •  Ambulatory Patient Services (outpatient services you receive without being admitted to hospital)

  • Emergency services
  •  Hospitalization (such as surgery and overnight stays).

  •  Pregnancy and maternity care, as well as newborn care (both prior to and after birth).

  •  Mental health and substance abuse disorder services, including behavioral healthcare treatment (this includes counseling or psychotherapy).

  • Prescription drugs
  •  Rehabilitative and habilitative devices (services and equipment to help people with disabilities or chronic conditions recover mental and physical abilities)

  • Laboratory services
  •  Preventive and wellness services for chronic disease management

  •  Children’s services, including dental and vision care. Adult dental and vision benefits are not essential health benefits.

The ACA also requires that health insurance cover birth control and breastfeeding.

Traditional health insurance is the most expensive choice for businesses. However, it has the advantage of a guaranteed enrollment.

The insurance company can’t deny coverage or charge higher premiums if the worker enrolls in the initial enrollment period, when they first qualify, during a special period of enrollment triggered by an event that qualifies, or during the open enrollment period, which begins on November 1st each year.

Utah Small Business Health Insurance Not Required

Employers with fewer than fifty employees are not required by the Affordable Care Act to offer any health insurance.

Utah law does not have any requirements. If you have less than 50 employees, then you do not have to provide health insurance.

You won’t have to pay a fine.

Even small companies should offer health benefits, as it can be difficult to retain and recruit quality employees without a competitive benefit.

Utah is a great place to work, as unemployment is low and employers are eager to hire the best talent.

Utah employers could save a lot of cash by offering a medical sharing plan or health sharing plan. (More info below) You can pay for some or all costs of your employees.

The HRA Alternative 

You can also offer a QSEHRA (Qualified Small Employer Health Reimbursement Arrangement) to help your employees pay their own personal health insurance tax-free.

Employers can benefit from QSEHRAs in the following ways:

1.) No minimum contribution limit

You are not required to make a minimum contribution each year as you would be with a pension plan. As an employer, it is up to you to decide how much money you want to spend on HRA benefits. You can change this budget each year based on your cash flow.

With a QSEHRA , you are in charge of your health benefit budget.

2.) Flexibility

You can offer different amounts to employees depending on their marital status or family status. You can discriminate against employees with dependents by offering a higher benefit to those with families.

3.) Both employers and employees are eligible for tax-free treatment

Your employer contributions can be deducted as compensation expenses. Your employees will not pay tax on the QSEHRA benefit, unlike cash compensation. This is provided they maintain an insurance plan that includes 10 essential coverages as specified in the Affordable Care Act.

This is why offering a QSEHRA can be better than offering a health insurance stipend to employees that they can use for health insurance or other expenses.

4.) QSEHRAs Support Employee’s Choice

Too many traditional group health plans limit the options available to employees who are in a wide range of situations.

These are often expensive and unsuitable to workers simply because they are chosen by HR and management and not by workers themselves.

The QSEHRA gives workers and their families a much wider range of choices and empowers them with the ability to choose a health plan that is right for them.

There are too many traditional group insurance plans that force employees with vastly different situations to choose between just one or two options for health insurance.

The HR department and the company management select these items, which are often expensive and not appropriate for employees. 

A QSEHRA offers workers and their family members a wide range of options and gives them the power to select a health plan that is right for them.

Taxation of Utah Small Business Health Insurance

The federal law and the Utah state law allow you to deduct as a business expense all health insurance premiums that you pay as an employee. The employee is not taxed on these premiums.

 Healthsharing plans have lower costs overall. The employee can also deduct their monthly costs. Employees are taxed on employer-paid health sharing costs.

Disadvantages to Employer Group Health Insurance in Utah

 Employers and their employees have some serious disadvantages with traditional employer group health insurance.

  • The Cost
     As we mentioned above, the cost of health insurance is often crippling. The government regulators in Washington, Salt Lake City and other cities have crammed health insurance policies full of mandatory coverages and requirements which make little sense to many workers.

    Traditional health insurance, for example, requires that carriers include coverage for drug and alcohol addictions, mental health, and maternity benefits, which many workers do not need or want. 

    This makes them less efficient and more expensive than they should be.

  • Inflexibility

    Group health insurance programs are often a one-size fits all strategy that may not adequately address the needs and budgets of specific employees. By nature, group health insurance plans sponsored by employers tend to provide only one or two options that may not be the best for certain employees.

    Workers may be better off purchasing their own plan through the individual market, and taking advantage of the Affordable Care Act subsidy. Below are some alternatives to health insurance that may be less expensive. These innovative and affordable health insurance alternatives can be a great option, especially for workers in good health with no pre-existing condition.

    Below, we discuss health sharing plans in greater detail.

  • Administrative burden
  •  Managing full-fledged benefits for health involves significant administrative costs. This includes managing documents and compliance, auditing the plans to ensure that employees do not enroll non-qualified individuals into the plan, as well as responding to staff questions. These duties are vital to ensure that the health insurance program within an organization runs smoothly.

    They are a burden for very small employers, who may not have enough employees to justify a full time HR staff to manage the plan.

    Business owners can also use strategies like Health Reimbursement Arrangements or health care stipends

    These alternative approaches encourage workers who are not covered by the Affordable Care Act to purchase their own insurance. This could help workers to benefit from available subsidies. This also removes the employer from the process, reducing overheads and administrative costs.

Health Sharing Plans in Utah

Health sharing plans for small business in Pennsylvania are a viable alternative to costly health insurance.

Pennsylvania’s businesses are turning to medical cost sharing as an alternative to traditional health insurance. By switching to health sharing plans, businesses can often save up 50% on premiums in comparison to their old group health plans. 

Pennsylvania small companies could save upwards of $10,000 annually per employee, for a family plan, and over $3,500 per person per year, for a single policy.

These programs provide a cutting-edge way for companies to finance healthcare. This allows them to provide high-quality health care to their employees while limiting costs. Health sharing programs operate on the principle of sharing resources across a group.

Health sharing programs involve participants paying an amount of money predetermined per year, instead of traditional health insurance which requires payment of premiums to insurance providers.

Health Sharing Plans vs. Health Insurance

Health sharing plans and health insurance are not the same.

Healthsharing organizations are voluntary associations that bring together people who share similar interests to share medical expenses. Health sharing ministries are non profit organizations, unlike health insurance companies that are typically for-profit corporations.

Mandated Coverages

Health insurance plans do not have such requirements. Federal and state laws require that traditional health insurance policies include coverage for many things, which many people don’t need or want. Health sharing organizations are not subject to the Ten Minimum Essential Coverage requirements.

For example, medical cost-sharing plans do not have to cover the cost for addiction treatment for those who never use drugs. They don’t have to cover the costs of treating injuries caused by drunk driving.

Pre-existing Conditions

Healthsharing plans can impose waiting periods for sharing the costs of pre-existing conditions.

They also often impose waiting times for surgeries, except in the case of accidents and injuries that were not foreseen before the member enrolled.

These waiting periods eliminate a lot of adverse selection and help health sharing organisations provide a fantastic set of benefits for a fraction the cost of a non-subsidized ACA qualified group health insurance policy, or one purchased through the Healthcare.gov Utah online exchange.

Note: Healthsharing plans do not qualify for subsidies under Affordable Care Act. The price savings are so great that even if you qualify for a subsidy depending on your circumstances, many people will still benefit by switching to healthsharing.

Utah employers may find that switching to health sharing is even more beneficial because small group health insurance doesn’t qualify for a subsidy on premiums under the ACA.

Health Sharing and Network Restrictions are in Utah

 Health sharing plans offer more choices when it comes time to choose healthcare providers than traditional managed care plans like HMOs and POS, which are the most common group health insurance plans sponsored by employers.

Healthsharing organizations in Utah don’t restrict patients to providers in their network in most cases. Health sharing plan members can choose their own doctor. Choosing the doctor of your choice is a right that people should have

Consultation and analysis are always free.

Small Businesses in Utah Can Take Advantage of Health Reimbursement Arrangements

Health Reimbursement Arrangements are employer-funded benefits which reimburse employees for their individual healthcare costs.

Small businesses in Utah often drop the group health benefit. Instead, they create an HRA and use it to give workers the money to purchase their own health insurance on the individual market with pre-tax dollars.

This allows employees to take advantage available subsidies, further reducing net costs for both the employee and the company.

 If there is any HRA money left after paying the premiums, workers can use it to pay for other costs, such as prescriptions, deductibles, copays, or durable medical equipment. HRA benefits remain tax-free for the employee.

By offering an HRA instead of a formal health insurance plan for your employees, you give them the freedom to choose health insurance plans that meet their needs.

QSEHRAs: The HRA for Utah Small Business Health Insurance

Small businesses can use an HRA that is called the Qualified Employer Health Reimbursement Agreement or QSEHRA.

This benefit is for companies that have fewer than 50 employees full-time or equivalent and do not offer a traditional health insurance plan.

Businesses can set their own QSEHRA maximums within certain limits. Utah employers will be able to contribute up to $5850 per employee (up to $487.50 a month) as of 2023. They can also contribute up to $11,800 per family member (up to $983.33 a month).

Employees can use this money to purchase their own health insurance through an online health insurance exchange or a Personal Benefits Manager on the individual and family market. This allows them to keep their eligibility for the subsidy they would have received under a group health insurance plan paid by their employer.

QSEHRAs & Special Enrollment Periods

Your employees will be eligible for a Special Registration Period when you replace your health insurance with an HRA. This is a 60 day window in which your employees can purchase their own ACA qualified insurance plan without having to go through medical underwriting.

This will ensure that your employees are not left without coverage when you replace your group health plan with a QSEHRA.

HRA Advantages

Health Reimbursement Arrangements are a great way to save money.

The money you spend on HRAs for your employees can be deducted from your taxes and is tax-free for your employees.

You retain control over HRA funds until they are actually paid to employees. You can use it as operating capital. You don’t need to deposit it anywhere.

Employers can be very flexible when designing their HRA benefits. This includes what expenses they are willing to reimburse.

Workers do not lose their health insurance coverage when they leave a company or become contractors. The QSEHRA allows the worker to control and own his or her health insurance policy. Not the employer.

HRA Disadvantages

Not all workers are willing to take on the responsibility of researching and choosing their own health insurance plans. Some workers may require extra assistance to make the transition.

Your HSA for America Personal Benefits manager is here to assist you. So that no worker is left out.

Here are some of direct primary care doctors’ most common medical services:

  •  Preventive Care. Doctors at DPC emphasize preventive medicine, providing services such as routine checks-ups, vaccinations, and screenings of various conditions.

  •  Acute Care:DPC doctors provide acute care for illnesses and injuries like infections, colds and flu, minor injuries and skin conditions.

  • Care coordination and referrals. DPC doctors are patient advocates who coordinate care with specialists, hospitals and other healthcare providers.

Since there is no insurance company involved there are no copays, coinsurance or deductibles. The monthly subscription covers all costs. The monthly subscription covers everything. This allows cash-strapped employees to get the care they need immediately. They don’t have to delay seeing a doctor because they cannot afford the co-pay or deductible.

Patients can choose from supplemental plans like high-deductible health plans, accident insurance, or health sharing plans to cover services that DPC does not offer. DPC members can choose to cover routine care with healthsharing plans, which are much cheaper than traditional health insurance.

Health insurance can be tricky. 

There’s a lot to keep track of and it’s easy to slip up and miss a deadline, or purchase the wrong plan.

The Top 8 Health Insurance Mistakes People Make (Number 8’s a Doozy!)

But good news: with a little research and some guidance from a health insurance expert, you can usually prevent these kinds of mistakes before they happen.

A smart move is to talk about what you need and what choices you have with an HSA for America Personal Benefits Manager.

This won’t cost you anything.

And they know a lot about saving you money.

That said, as professional health insurance experts, here are some of the biggest mistakes and misconceptions about health insurance we run into all the time.

Health Savings Accounts

 HSAs can be a powerful tool to help workers manage medical costs and to keep premiums for workplace health insurance plans lower.

Utah residents and businesses are in desperate need of any tax breaks they can get. The good news is that employer contributions to employee Health Savings Accounts are fully deductible from the Utah corporate tax as compensation expenses.

HSAs allow individuals to set aside money before taxes in order to save for future medical expenses. HSAs are open to both employees and employers, subject to a limit set by Congress to keep pace with the cost-of-living.

The money in an HSA grows tax-deferred, and withdrawals for qualified healthcare expenses are tax-free.

HSA Eligibility

Employees must enroll in an high-deductible health plan to be eligible to contribute to their HSA or to receive employer contributions before tax.

The IRS defines a high-deductible health plan for 2023 as any plan that has a deductible at least of $1,500 per individual or $3,000 per family.

The total annual out-of pocket expenses for an HDHP (including copayments and coinsurance), cannot exceed $7,500 per individual or $15,000 per family. This limit does not apply to services provided outside of the network. ).

Can I Combine HSAs and Health Sharing?

Currently, there is only one major health-sharing plan that preserves the employee’s eligibility to make pre-tax contributions into a health-savings account: HSA SECURE, offered by HSA for America.

The HSA SECURE Plan offers a great way to combine tax and healthcare benefits of a health saving account with cost-saving advantages of healthsharing.

To be eligible for this plan, employees must have some form of self-employment or small business income.

HSA SECURE does not apply to W-2 employees. HSA SECURE is a good option for employees or spouses who have a small business, freelance or side hustle, and are in good health without any preexisting conditions.

The HSA SECURE plan is also a great option for you as a small-business owner and your partners to save money.

Your employees would need to enroll themselves in HSA SECURE. Once they’ve established an HSA and enrolled, you can make contributions pre-tax on their behalf up to the annual limit Congress sets each year.

All Levels of the Utah Small Business Health Insurance Care Pyramid

Employee Health Benefits should be designed to cover the entire Employee Healthcare Pyramid. From routine prevention, to accessing primary care and early detection for health problems through to catastrophic accidents.

Your Personal Benefits manager can help you design a plan that is tailored to your employees and provides solutions at each level of Care Pyramid. This can be done at a fraction the cost of a group plan for the employer.

The Utah Small Business Health Insurance Tax Credit

Small Business Health Care Tax Credit, passed along with ACA, allows certain small businesses to claim a tax credit up to 50% on their employee health insurance expenses.

It is designed for small businesses that have 25 or fewer employees and tend to hire workers at lower wages.

Businesses that are for-profit or non-profit can claim the credit.

* Have less than 25 employees with an average salary of $53,000 or lower (excluding all owners’ salaries). Owners are generally not included in the calculation of the number and average salary of employees for a business. The number of employees is also based on the “full-time equals” (FTEs). Two half-time employees are equal to one full-time employee.

* Pay at least 50% of the premiums for employees.

* Offer coverage that meets the requirements of the Affordable Care Act on the state exchange. In Utah’s case, this is healthcare.gov, which is the federal online insurance marketplace.

Once an employer has 25 employees, or if the average wage is $53,000 or more, the tax credit is gone.

How do I claim my credit?

This tax credit can be claimed on your annual income taxes with IRS Form 8941 attached (tax-exempt small business must file a Form990-T tax report to claim even if they are not required to do so).

Contributions to health insurance for your employees are tax-free

I don’t have to pay taxes for my business this year. Can I still claim my tax credit?

 Yes. This tax credit may be carried back to offset income taxes owed in the previous year, or carried forward to offset liabilities incurred over the following 20 years

If you are a tax-exempt company, the credit will be refundable.

Consult your tax advisor to get the full details on the Small Business Health Care Tax Credit.

Combining Utah Small Business Health Insurance Plan Strategies

Combining different programs can help you maximize your health insurance coverage.

Combining a variety of healthcare packages allows employers to control costs and provide complete coverage for their employees.

As a cost-effective solution, consider combining a Direct Primary Care plan (DPC) for normal primary care and a low-cost Health Sharing Plan that covers catastrophic events.

This strategy is more affordable than the conventional group health insurance for your company or your employees.

Employees can be given more flexibility by allowing them to choose between a health sharing plan and an individual health insurance plan. They can also fund a Health Savings Account for those who select a HDHP plan that qualifies for an HSA.

What To Do Now

The best way to proceed is to conduct an employee survey and  contact us in order to receive a complimentary, complementary analysis and recommendation of a business health plan.

You will be connected with a Persona Benefits Manager from HSA for America who will discuss with you your work force, families, budget, needs, employee contribution ability, and any preexisting health conditions that need to be taken into consideration when designing a plan.

Many of our PBMs are successful business owners or entrepreneurs themselves. They understand what it takes to attract and retain the best talent for your business.

Can I offer both health insurance and health sharing at the same?

You can offer both plans side-by-side, allowing your employees to select the plan that best suits their needs.

If too many employees opt-out of a health insurance group plan, you may fall below the minimum required participation rate to maintain a plan. You can use an HRA as a reimbursement for the employee’s individual health insurance. This will cost close to the same.
