Abstract:
Under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (P.L. 111-148) and implementing regulations at 45 CFR Part 149, employment-based plans that offer health coverage to early retirees and their spouses, surviving spouses, and dependents are eligible to receive tax-free reimbursement for a portion of the costs of health benefits provided to such individuals. To qualify, a plan sponsor must submit a complete application to HHS, and must submit reimbursement requests that consist of a list of individuals for whom reimbursement is sought, and documentation of the costs of health benefits provided.
