Everyone logs in to the view that fits their role.

Employers, agents, and employees all work inside ICHRALY. Each sees a workspace built for what they actually need to do.

Employers

Set allowances by employee class, watch enrollment in real time, and pull audit-ready compliance reports. You control the budget and ICHRALY handles the math.

Agents

Run your whole book in one place. Onboard employer groups, track enrollments across every client, and keep each case compliant without the spreadsheets.

Employees

See your monthly allowance, compare individual plans side by side, enroll, and track reimbursements. No paperwork and no guesswork.

ICHRA vs group plans

A budget you control, and plans employees actually want.

Traditional group plans are costly, rigid, and reprice every year. ICHRA flips the model: you set the contribution, employees choose the coverage.

How it works

A running ICHRA in four steps.

You are not left alone with a dashboard. CareTeam runs the heavy parts with you.

01

Design the plan

Get an estimate, then set a budget by employee class. We check ACA affordability as you go.

02

We onboard your team

We prepare plan documents and notices and set employees up, with education sessions.

03

Employees shop and enroll

Employees compare individual plans on price, network, and prescriptions, with an agent to help.

04

Set up payments and reporting

We help you set up reimbursements through an employer-funded debit card or EFT account, or you reimburse directly, and your compliance reports are ready whenever you need them.

Why CareTeam

Powered by an agent network

Every group has a licensed agent behind it.

FAQ

ICHRA questions, answered.

Not anymore. Many ACA plans now use the same carriers and networks as group plans, sometimes with better coverage for less. We show you what is actually available in your area before you decide.

Often yes. Most employees assume their doctor is out of network, then find the opposite when they check. Plan-matching tools let each person confirm their providers before they enroll.

They will not do it alone. ICHRALY gives them plan-matching tools, and a licensed CareTeam agent walks them through it. Think of it like a 401(k): with the right guidance, people make good choices.

Often it costs less. You set a predictable, tax-free budget instead of absorbing group premium hikes every year. Run an estimate to see the numbers for your own team.

It is different from group coverage, not harder. ICHRALY generates the plan documents and notices and runs the affordability checks, and CareTeam supports you through ACA, ERISA, Medicare, and PCORI.

It is an evolution, not an experiment. The same way 401(k) plans replaced pensions, defined-contribution health benefits are becoming standard. About 9 in 10 employers who offer an HRA keep it the following year.

The rollout is what matters. We handle education, guided plan selection, and ongoing support, so your team feels supported through the change rather than left to figure it out.

It fits many teams, especially remote, multi-location, high-turnover, and cost-focused employers. If it is not the right move for your company, we will tell you honestly.
