- Smart Healthcare Solutions: How Companies Are Cutting Costs While Improving Employee Benefits
In today's economic climate, businesses of all sizes are grappling with rising healthcare costs. However, innovative solutions are emerging that benefit both employers and employees. What many organizations don't realize is that a small portion of their workforce—just 5% of members—typically accounts for 75% of their total healthcare spending. This insight opens the door to strategic approaches that can significantly reduce costs while ensuring employees receive the care they need. Hidden Opportunities in Healthcare Coverage The key to managing healthcare costs isn't about reducing benefits—it's about finding smarter coverage options that better match each employee's specific situation. Here are some real-world examples of how companies are achieving remarkable savings: The Medicare Advantage When a company discovered their 67-year-old employee was struggling with high healthcare costs, they explored Medicare as an alternative. Thanks to recent Medicare improvements, including a $2,000 out-of-pocket maximum on prescription drugs and a $35 cap on insulin, the employee saved over $6,500 in annual out-of-pocket expenses. This change not only benefited the employee but also prevented a 10% increase in the employer's renewal rates. Finding Better Options for COBRA Recipients COBRA coverage, while valuable, isn't always the most cost-effective solution. In one case, a COBRA participant was paying $800 monthly for coverage, significantly impacting the company's renewal rates. Through a careful review of available options, they found an individual marketplace plan that covered the same doctors, hospitals, and prescriptions—saving the participant $4,000 annually while simultaneously reducing costs for the employer. Creative Solutions for Family Coverage A mid-sized organization with 200 employees faced a common challenge: high costs due to extensive dependent coverage. Their innovative solution? They introduced an incentive program that reimbursed 100% of healthcare deductibles, copays, and out-of-pocket costs for employees and spouses who opted to join their spouse's employer plan instead. The results were impressive: 20% of families switched plans, leading to annual savings of nearly $250,000. This approach created a win-win situation—employees received comprehensive coverage with no out-of-pocket costs, while the company significantly reduced its healthcare spending. The Path Forward These success stories highlight a crucial point: managing healthcare costs doesn't require sacrificing quality of care. Instead, it's about: 1. Understanding that one size doesn't fit all when it comes to healthcare coverage 2. Educating employees about alternative options that might better suit their needs 3. Creating innovative incentive programs that benefit both the organization and its employees 4. Taking a proactive approach to benefits management Smart healthcare solutions aren't just about cutting costs—they're about finding the right fit for each situation. By thinking creatively and exploring all available options, organizations can create substantial savings while ensuring their employees have access to the healthcare coverage they need. Remember: The most effective healthcare solutions often come from looking beyond traditional approaches and being willing to explore innovative alternatives that benefit everyone involved.
- The Rise and Potential Fall of Lease-Purchase Programs: New Task Force Recommends
Major Changes The landscape of trucking industry contracting practices may be on the verge of significant change, following new recommendations from the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration's (FMCSA) Truck Leasing Task Force (TLTF). In a recently released report, the task force has taken a strong stance against Lease-Purchase (LP) programs, recommending their outright prohibition based on findings of systematic issues affecting independent contractors. Understanding the Report's Key Findings The TLTF's investigation revealed concerning patterns in current LP programs. The task force found these arrangements often result in significant financial hardship for drivers, with programs frequently lacking equity potential and proper vetting processes. Perhaps most troublingly, the investigation uncovered that these issues weren't isolated incidents but rather systematic problems across the industry. The report highlighted several critical shortcomings in current LP programs: Insufficient disclosure requirements Poor program vetting processes Limited success rates for participants Lack of regulatory oversight Inadequate remedies for affected contractors Looking Forward: Recommended Changes The task force's recommendations are comprehensive, focusing on four main areas: First, they advocate for complete prohibition of current LP program structures. Second, they call for increased oversight mechanisms to prevent exploitative practices. Third, they recommend implementing both federal and state enforcement measures. Finally, they emphasize the need for enhanced protections and educational resources, including mandatory disclosures and specific contract provisions. What This Means for the Industry While these findings represent a significant development, it's important to understand that this report is currently in its initial stages. Implementation of any recommendations would require navigation through multiple legislative and regulatory processes. One potential outcome could be the integration of new oversight measures into existing frameworks, similar to the Federal Truth in Leasing regulations (49 CFR 376.12). Industry Best Practices Moving Forward For motor carriers, this report serves as a crucial reminder to evaluate their contractor relationships carefully. Progressive companies are already implementing more robust vetting processes and transparent contractual arrangements. This includes utilizing comprehensive evaluation tools and risk assessment frameworks to ensure compliance and fairness in their independent contractor programs. The report's findings underscore the importance of proactive risk management and program evaluation. Motor carriers would be wise to begin reviewing their current practices and implementing stronger oversight measures, rather than waiting for potential regulatory changes. Conclusion While the TLTF's recommendations are still in their early stages, they signal a potential shift in how the industry approaches contractor relationships. Forward-thinking companies will use this as an opportunity to evaluate and enhance their programs, ensuring they're well-positioned for any future regulatory changes while maintaining positive relationships with their independent contractors. The trucking industry stands at a crossroads, and how companies respond to these developments could shape their success in the years to come. Staying informed and proactive in addressing these concerns will be crucial for maintaining competitive advantage while ensuring fair treatment of independent contractors.
- IRS Issues Revenue Ruling on State PFML Payments, Benefits
The IRS has issue d Revenue Ruling 2025-4 , pro viding long-awaited guidance on the federal tax treatment of contributions and benefits under state paid family and medical leave (PFML) programs. The ruling addresses how federal income and employment tax rules apply to the programs and includes guidance on related reporting requirements. The guidance was issued Jan. 15, 2025. The ruling is effective for payments made on or after Jan. 1, 2025, but transitional relief applies for payments during 2025. Currently, 13 states and the District of Columbia have enacted mandatory PFML programs. The ruling does not address state PFML programs that are voluntary. Action Steps Employers should study the revenue ruling so they are prepared to comply with federal tax requirements for PFML contributions and payments. In particular, employers should act to ensure that their payroll and W-2 form practices meet withholding and reporting requirements detailed in the guidance. The IRS is soliciting comments on additional situations and aspects of state PFML that are not covered in the revenue ruling. Employers may submit their written comments by April 15, 2025. State Mandatory PFML Programs In recent years, mandatory PFML programs have been enacted across the country, with 13 states and the District of Columbia having put in place PFML mandates to date. Additional states have established voluntary PFML programs, but the revenue ruling explicitly exempts these programs from its coverage. State PFML programs vary on features like employee eligibility requirements, covered employers, length of benefit coverage, amount of compensation, qualifying reasons for leave and job protections. Many state PFML laws also allow employers to meet their PFML obligations through an approved private PFML plan. The IRS guidance discusses the rules it articulates in the context of a particular state PFML program (“State X”), whose described features are fairly standard, including funding from both employer contributions and employee payroll withholding at a set rate based on a percentage of employee wages, remitted to a state-administered fund. The revenue ruling does not apply to private plans. Federal Tax Treatment of PFML Contributions and Benefits Employer Contributions In general, according to the revenue ruling, employers may deduct their mandatory contributions to PFML programs as an excise tax. These amounts are not included in the federal gross income of the employee under IRS Code § 61. State PFML laws often allow employers to voluntarily pay part or all of their employees’ required contributions to the program. The ruling terms this an “employer pick-up” and allows the employer to deduct the payment as a business expense. The payments are treated as additional compensation to the employee under § 61 and included in wages for federal employment tax purposes. In addition, the employer must report the pick-up on the employee’s Form W-2. However, the employee may deduct the employer pick-up as state income tax, but only if the employee itemizes their deductions and only up to the state and local income tax (SALT) deduction limit. Employee Contributions Employees may similarly deduct the PFML contributions that are withheld from their pay by their employer as an income tax payment, but again only if they itemize their tax deductions and only up to the SALT limit. Even though these amounts are withheld from the employee’s wages, they are included in the employee’s gross income, and the employer must report the contributions on the employee’s Form W-2. Benefit Payments Generally, state paid family leave (as opposed to medical leave) payments must be included in employees’ gross income. However, these amounts are not wages subject to federal employment taxes. Nonetheless, states must file with the IRS and provide employees with a Form 1099 for any paid family leave payments of $600 or more in a taxable year. State medical leave payments are treated differently in the revenue ruling. For these benefits, only the portion of the payments attributable to the employer’s contribution is included in the employee’s gross income. This portion is also subject to both the employer’s and employee’s shares of Social Security and Medicare taxes. The amount of the medical leave payment attributable to the employee’s portion of contributions is excluded from the employee’s gross income and is not subject to Social Security or Medicare taxes. Tax Requirement Tables The revenue ruling included the two tables below detailing the tax requirements of contributions and payments under state PFML programs. Table 1. Summary of the Federal Income Tax Consequences of Contributions to State PFML Programs Types of Contributions Consequence to Employer Consequence to Employee Employer contribution Employer may deduct the employer contribution as an excise tax under § 164 of the IRS Code. Employee does not include the employer contribution in employee’s federal gross income. Employee contribution Employer must include the employee contribution as wages on employee’s Form W-2. Employee contribution is included in employee’s federal gross income as wages. Employee may deduct the employee contribution as state income tax under § 164 if employee itemizes deductions on employee’s federal income tax return, but only to the extent the deduction for state tax paid does not exceed the SALT deduction limitation provided under § 164(b)(6). Employer pick-up of employee contributions Employer may deduct the employer pick-up payment that employer pays from employer’s funds as an ordinary and necessary business expense under § 162. Employer must include the employer voluntary payment as wages on employee’s Form W-2. The employer pick-up is additional compensation to employee and is included in employee’s federal gross income as wages. Employee may deduct the employer pick-up of the employee contribution as state income tax under § 164 if employee itemizes deductions on employee’s federal income tax return, but only to the extent the deduction for state tax paid does not exceed the SALT deduction limitation provided under§ 164(b)(6). Table 2. Summary of the Federal Income Tax Consequences of Family and Medical Leave Benefits Paid by State PFML Programs Type of Benefits Amount Attributable to Employer Contribution Amount Attributable to Employee Contribution Family leave benefits Employee must include the amount attributable to the employer contribution in employee’s federal gross income (employer contribution not previously included in employee’s federal gross income). This amount is not wages. State must file with the IRS and furnish employee a Form 1099 to report these payments. Employee must include the amount attributable to the employee contribution, as well as to any employer pick-up of the employee contribution, in employee’s federal gross income. This amount is not wages. State must file with the IRS and furnish employee a Form 1099 to report these payments. Medical leave benefits Employee must include the amount attributable to the employer contribution in employee’s federal gross income (employer contribution not previously included in employee’s federal gross income) except as otherwise provided in § 105. This amount is wages. The sick pay reporting rules apply to the medical leave benefits attributable to employer contributions. These payments are third-party payments (by a party that is not an agent of the employer) of sick pay. The amount attributable to the employee contribution, as well as to any employer pick-up of the employee contribution, is excluded from employee’s federal gross income. Effective Dates The revenue ruling states that it is effective for payments made on or after Jan. 1, 2025; however, the ruling provides the transition relief detailed below for payments made during calendar year 2025: Medical leave benefit payments made in 2025 attributable to an employer’s contribution —States and employers are not required to follow the income tax withholding and reporting requirements applicable to third-party sick pay. Neither the state nor the employer will be liable for any associated penalties under Code § 6721 for failure to file a correct information return or under § 6722 for failure to furnish a correct payee statement to the payee. Medical leave benefit payments made in 2025 attributable to an employer’s contribution —States and employers are not required to comply with § 32.1 and related Code sections (as well as similar requirements under § 3306) during the calendar year or to withhold and pay associated taxes; consequently, associated penalties will not apply. Employer pick-up payments made during calendar year 2025 —Employers are not required to treat amounts they voluntarily pay for any part of an employee’s required PFML contribution as wages for federal employment tax purposes under §§ 3121(a), 3306(b) and 3401(a). Comments Requested The IRS is soliciting comments on additional situations and aspects of state PFML programs that are not cover ed in Revenue Ruling 2025-4. The comments may be submitted electronically via the federal e-rulemaking portal at https://www.regulations.gov . Comments may also be submitted by mail to the following address: Internal Revenue Service, CC:PA:LPD:PR ( Revenue Ruling 2025-4 PDF ), Room 5203, P.O.

- Medicare Part D Disclosures due by March 1, 2025 for Calendar Year Plans
Each year, group health plan sponsors are required to complete an online disclosure form with the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), indicating whether the plan’s prescription drug coverage is creditable or non-creditable. This disclosure requirement applies when an employer-sponsored group health plan provides prescription drug coverage to individuals who are eligible for coverage under Medicare Part D. CMS Disclosure Deadline The plan sponsor must complete the online disclosure within 60 days after the beginning of the plan year . For calendar year health plans, the deadline for the annual online disclosure is March 1, 2025 . In addition to the annual disclosure requirement, the disclosure to CMS must be made whenever any change occurs that affects whether the coverage is creditable. More specifically, within 30 days after any change in the plan’s creditable coverage status or after the termination of a plan’s prescription drug coverage. Online Disclosure Method Plan sponsors are required to use the online disclosure form on the CMS creditable coverage website. This is the sole method for compliance with the disclosure requirement unless the entity does not have internet access. The disclosure form lists the required data fields that must be completed in order to generate the disclosure notice to CMS, such as types of coverage, number of options offered, creditable coverage status, period covered by the disclosure notice, number of Part D-eligible individuals covered, date the creditable coverage disclosure notice is provided to Part D-eligible individuals, and change in creditable coverage status. Important Dates March 1, 2025 The deadline for sponsors of calendar year plans to complete an online disclosure form with CMS. Oct. 15, 2025 Group health plan sponsors must provide creditable coverage disclosures to Medicare-eligible individuals before this date. Action Steps To determine whether the CMS reporting requirement applies, employers should verify whether their group health plans cover any Medicare-eligible individuals (including active employees, disabled employees, COBRA participants, retirees, and their covered spouses and dependents) at the start of each plan year. Please reach out to your Cottingham & Butler team member for guidance on how to complete the disclosure for your plan. CMS has also provided instructions on how to complete the form. For additional information, please visit CMS’ creditable coverage website , which includes links to the online disclosure form and related instructions.
- Key Changes Coming to FMCSA's Safety Measurement System
The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) is modernizing its Safety Measurement System (SMS) to enhance road safety and simplify compliance monitoring. Here's what motor carriers need to know about the upcoming changes. Three Major Updates 1. Streamlined Compliance Categories The FMCSA has reorganized its compliance categories to better reflect safety priorities: A new "Vehicle Maintenance: Driver Observed" category separates violations that drivers can identify during routine inspections Controlled Substances/Alcohol violations now fall under Unsafe Driving Operating while Out-of-Service violations are consolidated into relevant categories 2. Simplified Violation Groups The current system's 2,000+ individual violations will be consolidated into approximately 100 violation groups. This means: Similar safety issues are grouped together Multiple violations of the same type during one inspection count as a single violation Carriers face more consistent evaluation standards Focus shifts to identifying safety issues rather than counting violations 3. Clear-Cut Severity Weights Gone is the complex 1-10 scale. The new system uses just two weights: Weight of 2: Out-of-Service violations and Driver Disqualifying violations Weight of 1: All other violations What This Means for Your Operation These changes will streamline how you: Monitor safety performance Prepare for inspections Address compliance issues Train your drivers Next Steps Preview your data on the CSA Prioritization Preview website Update your safety programs to align with new categories Train your team on the new violation groups Review your maintenance and compliance procedures Stay Informed The FMCSA continues to refine these changes through industry feedback and data analysis. Future webinars will address additional updates, including: Improved intervention thresholds Additional compliance category changes Updated utilization factors Questions?
