On June 26, the IRS published Notice 2002-45, 2002-28 IRB 93, and companion Revenue Ruling 2002-41, 2002-28 IRB 75, in which it sanctioned a new form of employer-funded health care reimbursement arrangement to be known as a “health reimbursement arrangement.”

HRA’s are intended to be used to reimburse employees and their dependents for eligible medical care expenses, up to a maximum dollar amount for each period of coverage, with any unreimbursed balance eligible to be carried forward to the next coverage period, including retirement. Employer contributions to and reimbursements from an HRA are to be excludable from gross income pursuant to Code Sections 105 and 106.
