How much does it cost employers to offer RHA to their retirees?
Employers must be a member of the HR Policy Association or the Pacific Business Group on Health and pay their appropriate annual membership fee. The Health Care Policy Roundtable requires that employers pay a one time coalition access fee of $30,000 plus an annual program maintenance fee of $30,000 to offer RHA. In addition, $.75 per member per month is included in RHA premiums to cover program costs. Companies that participated in the research and development of RHA receive reductions in the coalition and maintenance fees. Beginning in 2008, midsized employers with between 1,000 and 2,000 employees can also take advantage of RHA’s unique features at a special price.
