FAQ
Employers of any size may offer an ICHRA to any type of worker including full time and part time employees as well as independent contractors.
Employers don’t select the insurance company or the plan(s) when using an ICHRA for health insurance benefits. They simply determine how much they want to contribute towards the benefit and employees select their own insurance company and plan.
Plan rates are community rated and not subject to underwriting, claims experience, or health conditions. If an employee applies for a plan, the insurance company is obligated to sell them the plan at the published rate.

We believe that zizzl health delivers the best ICHRA experience and value to your clients. We don’t know why you would, but you are not prohibited from selling other ICHRA solutions.
Yes. zizzl health will work with you to help determine if the contribution strategy is meeting ACA affordability requirement. All plans available to employees through zizzl health meet the minimum essential coverage requirement.
ICHRA plans are considered ACA compliant as all qualified plans provide minimum essential coverage and employer contributions can be structured to be affordable. COBRA also applies for employers subject to ERISA law. However, state continuation does not apply.
ICHRA’s are compatible with both health care flexible spending accounts and health saving accounts. Employers can offer one or both in conjunction with an ICHRA.
Employers may pay insurance companies on behalf of each employee and payroll deduct the employee contribution if their premium exceeds the employer contribution. This method has the advantage of a familiar “group plan” feel to employees. Alternatively, employers may require employees to pay the entire premium and submit a reimbursement request for the employer contribution. This method creates cash flow and inconvenience issues for some employees.
Employers of any size may offer an ICHRA to any type of worker,including full time and part time employees, as well as independent contractors.
