How the iCHRA Allowance Works
The employer's HRA contribution is always 80% of the Silver SLCSP annualized premium — regardless of which plan the employee selects. The employee's payroll deduction = their chosen plan premium minus the HRA allowance. If the HRA allowance exceeds the plan premium (e.g. Bronze), the employee pays $0 in premium.
