The Section 105 One-Person HRA is how many small micro-business owners can reduce the high cost of health insurance and out-of-pocket medical expenses.
Section 105 of the Internal Revenue Code has been around since 1954. Soon thereafter Section 105 One-Person HRA plans gained popularity in the agricultural industry as farmers utilized the plans to provide these tax deductions to their family members employed on the farm. Today Section 105 HRA One-Person Plans are widely accepted with over 50,000 small business owners taking advantage of the tax deduction. Average tax savings are more than $5,000 per year. Savings may be more or less depending on the amount of deductions.
The Affordable Care Act (ACA) eliminated annual/lifetime benefit limits for plans with 2 or more employees; however all one-person HRA plans survived this new ACA/ObamaCare regulation, and are still a viable benefit option.
What does this mean for many intelligent, self-employed business owners, or potential new small business owners? Establish a Section 105 HRA through Core Documents and reimburse your insurance premium and out-of-pocket medical, dental, and vision expenses tax-free and save thousands of dollars you couldn’t deduct otherwise.
I can’t think of a better reason to start a small family business than to use those funds, tax-free to pay for the extremely high cost of healthcare in a post-ACA world.

HRAs are Medical Expense Reimbursement Plans that allow you to save substantial tax dollars on insurance premiums and out-of-pocket medical expenses not covered by insurance. Section 105 HRA One-Person HRA Plans are designed specifically for small business owners who are considered self-employed, or the only eligible employee of a Corporation, or who can legitimately hire their spouse, or have just one employee eligible for benefits. Because the spouse/employee can be reimbursed for family expenses the employer indirectly benefits as well. This type of plan is made possible by Section 105 of the Internal Revenue Code, Revenue Ruling 71-588 and IRS Letter Ruling 9409006. (For a C corporation and S corporation owner it is not necessary to use the spouse/employee method. The corporation becomes the employer and the owner is an employee as long as they are an employee receiving a regular paycheck.)
Section 105 HRA One-Person Plans are best suited for employees of sole proprietors, corporations, limited liability companies, and partnerships. Business owners generally can’t participate in a Section 105 HRA plan. This is why the spouse/employee approach has become so popular. However, C corporation and S corporation owners can participate as long as they’re receiving a regular paycheck as an employee.
Good question. The answer is yes, however the deductions are limited as outlined below.
Care must be taken when establishing a Section 105 One-Person HRA plan to ensure that a legitimate employer/employee relationship exists with the family member. In 1999 the IRS Industry Specialization Program offered a coordinated issue paper regarding Section 105 and the spouse/employee issue that said: “The extent and nature of a spouse’s involvement in the business operations is critical. Although, part-time work does not negate employee status, the performance of nominal or insignificant services that have no economic substance or independent significance may be challenged. Merely calling a spouse an “employee” is not sufficient to qualify a non-working spouse as an employee”.
The question is, does the spouse provide meaningful services to the company, and would the employer have to hire someone else to provide the same services if the spouse was not available for employment? If the answer is yes, then you qualify to establish a Section 105 HRA plan for your spouse.
