Premium Only Plan Employer Brochure

Our Premium Only Plan saves you and your employees tax dollars by allowing employees to pay for their portion of employer-provided health and/or dental plans with pre-tax dollars. By using pre-tax dollars, employees will see their take-home pay increase. You save too, since your taxable payroll decreases. This is an Internal Revenue Code (IRC) Section 125 plan.
