Why have I never heard of a pre-tax health benefit (ICHRA)?

ICHRA, or individual coverage health reimbursement arrangement, is a newish type of health benefit made possible by federal legislation in 2019 and available one year later. Adoption was slow initially. But that's mainly because the companies who have offered ICHRA plans have focused on customization. That "ICHRA" has a long, complicated name with an acronym that's hard to pronounce hasn't helped. (Read "ICHRA History Lesson: How the Pre-Tax Health Benefit Came to Be" for more details.)
