Why It Works

The tax code logic behind this benefit

Federal actuaries building the ACA found that preventive, wellness-based coverage dramatically lowers long-term health costs — the same reason Medicare covers colonoscopies and auto insurers discount for airbags. Section 125 of the IRS code lets employers structure benefits like these through pre-tax payroll, lowering the taxable wage base for both employee and employer while a separate benefit payment flows back to the employee.

The retention problem this solves

“Employees don’t just leave for more money. They leave because they feel financially vulnerable — and because a competitor offered something that felt like more security.”

The cost of losing a skilled tradesperson — recruiting, onboarding, lost institutional knowledge — runs 50% to 200% of their annual salary. Employers using benefit structures like this have reported turnover reductions of up to 30%. For a 30-person crew, that’s tens of thousands in avoided recruiting costs on top of $25,000+ in annual payroll tax savings.
