DEFINITION: ICHRA (we pronounce it “ick-rah”) stands for “Individual Coverage Health Reimbursement Arrangement” (not the common misnomer of individual coverage health reimbursement accounts)  and is available for employers to start using as of January 2020. ICHRA is an evolution of another type of HRA, called a QSEHRA, that was created in 2017. Both allow employers to reimburse employees tax-free for individual health insurance, but ICHRA represents a “super-charged” version of QSEHRA with higher limits and greater design flexibility that will appeal.
