EP 152: Understanding the Debate Surrounding Employer-Sponsored Insurance Tax Exclusion

In this episode, Suzanne Spradley and Chase Cannon discuss the debate relating to employer-sponsored group health plan coverage and insurance tax exclusion. Suzanne describes what is meant by employer-sponsored insurance (ESI) and the background on the tax breaks that employers and employees receive when it comes to ESI. Suzanne and Chase walk through the two sides of the debate on keeping or remodeling the ESI tax exclusion, which could become a bigger issue in 2025 with respect to tax and health policy under the constantly changing legislative environment in DC.
