The Employee Health Bill
Small firms get tax credit for employee health reimbursements
Tax credit; health reimbursement arrangement
Good for everyday people ·
If passed, small businesses that hire up to 50 workers could get a $400 tax credit for each employee they put into a health reimbursement plan, lowering their taxes.
Our take
What we think, in plain words.
The bill could make it cheaper for tiny companies to offer health benefits, helping workers get coverage while keeping business costs down; but it also reduces state tax revenue.
