When an ICHRA Makes the Most Sense — and When It Doesn’t
Best-fit scenarios:
- Multi-state or remote teams needing localized coverage.
- Small businesses seeking predictable cost control.
- Employers without restrictive state/local healthcare mandates.
- ACA Large Employers (Over 50 FTEs) with very few people enrolling in their current plan
When to think twice:
- Operations in Hawaii, San Francisco, or under the Service Contract Act.
- States where Marketplace plans are significantly more expensive than employer plans
- Teams with low Marketplace plan availability.
