What QSEHRA software and QSEHRA management should do

Below we will walk you through the things that QSEHRA software should do (at a minimum!)

1. Automatic Reporting

You’ll be submitting paperwork routinely for your staff when they request reimbursement for healthcare expenses. Because of that, having a software tool that provides automatic monthly reimbursement reports is vital. Along with monthly reports, such as your reimbursement report, you will want to ensure you choose a tool that provides year-end tax reporting as well.

 2. Approval and Tracking

Rather than spending time trying to ensure your employee’s reimbursement fits HRA criteria, find a software tool that automatically approves reimbursements based on your HRA conditions. An added benefit that will aid both you and your staff is a tool that will track all employee balances.

3. Reimbursement Requests

Your employees will be submitting many requests for reimbursement throughout the year. To help streamline this process, you want to pick a software that allows them to do so online or through their smart phone. QSEHRA software like ours will keep track of all paperwork that comes along with a reimbursement request- receipts, appointment referrals, medical records, etc…and will sync to your payroll software to save you a step. 

4. Smart Setup

Selecting and setting up a QSEHRA plan can be intimidating and overwhelming. A QSEHRA software tool should also come along with a staff that is available to you throughout the entire process, beginning with the setup. Look for a company (like Take Command!) that will help you customize your plan around your needs surrounding finances, company size, and all legal and accounting details. IRS requires a lot to keep your QSEHRA plan compliant. This is where a good QSEHRA administration tool will come in.

This tool should include: 

• Your legal plan and summary plan description (SPD)
• A way to collect and store employees’ electronic signatures
• Privacy features that ensure the company does not view employees’ protected health information (PHI)
• ERISA compliance
• Documentation regarding appeal requirements, notifications, and procedures
• Continued coverage of dependent children up to age 26
• Automated notice requirements for employees’ eligibility and annual allowance
