What SIMERP 125 Is

A Section 125 Preventive Care Plan — Not Insurance

A Section 125 cafeteria plan structure may be used to deliver a preventive care benefit. This is not an insurance product and a confidential review can determine whether the structure aligns with your organization's existing benefits framework.

Under a properly structured arrangement, a portion of employee wages may be redirected through a pre-tax salary reduction mechanism. Employees may access preventive care, and employers may identify payroll-related savings opportunities—a confidential review determines the specific economics for your workforce composition, eligibility structure, and payroll profile.

The Core Distinction

Most employer health benefits cost the employer while providing value to the employee. A properly structured Section 125 preventive care arrangement may deliver value to both — potentially creating payroll-related savings opportunities for the employer while improving preventive care access for the employee.

Why This Is Different

Not Insurance — No Carrier Risk

The structure may not involve traditional insurance premiums, underwriting, or coverage denials. Benefits may be accessed through participating provider networks—a confidential review determines the specific structure and fit for your organization.

ERISA-Compatible — Complements Existing Plans

SIMERP 125 is designed as a supplementary layer, not a replacement. It fills coverage gaps without disrupting your current ERISA plan design, benefits elections, or compliance structure.

Favorable Economics Potential

Potential payroll tax savings may be meaningful for employers with eligible W-2 employees. A confidential review determines the specific economics for your workforce composition, eligibility structure, and payroll profile—no two employers are identical.

Streamlined Administration, Confidential Review

Our team coordinates plan documentation, enrollment support, and compliance guidance. The employer's role is to review and approve—a confidential assessment determines specific fit and impact.

How It Works

A Section 125 Preventive Care Plan — Advisory Review

SIMERP 125 leverages Section 125 of the Internal Revenue Code to structure a preventive care benefit that may create payroll-related savings opportunities for qualifying employers. A confidential review determines specific fit and impact for your workforce composition, eligibility structure, and payroll profile.

Mechanics

Section 125 Pre-Tax Structure

The plan utilizes a cafeteria plan structure allowing employees to receive preventive care benefits through pre-tax salary reductions. This reduces taxable wages, lowering both employer and employee FICA obligations.

Tax Impact

Payroll Tax Reduction

By reducing taxable wages through the Section 125 mechanism, employers may see payroll tax savings on FUTA, FICA, and state unemployment taxes—depending on workforce composition, eligibility, wage levels, and applicable rates.

Benefit

Comprehensive Coverage

Employees may access preventive care including primary care, urgent care, mental health services, and prescription coverage. Employer economics depend on workforce composition, eligibility, payroll structure, and program design—a confidential review determines the specific impact.

Why This Differs From Traditional Health Plans

No premiums, deductibles, or co-pays for preventive care services covered under the plan.

Complements existing plans rather than replacing them—filling gaps in coverage without disrupting current benefit structures.

Potentially favorable employer economics from day one—potential payroll-related savings opportunities may be meaningful. A confidential review determines specific impact for your organization.

Not insurance—complementary structure—the plan is designed as a supplementary benefit, not insurance. Fit and liability considerations should be reviewed case by case.

Your Workforce, Your Numbers

No two employers receive the same result. The review examines your payroll profile, identifies qualifying employees, calculates applicable federal and state tax savings, and determines whether SIMERP 125 is a fit for your organization—all before any implementation decision.
