Expense Reduction via Charging Employees the Full Premium

[Guest cstevenson]

Hello everyone,

Have any of you heard of this way for employers to save money: Relating to IRS MR106, the employee pays the full premium for a medical deduction and then the employer reimburses the employee for the portion that the employer would have paid directly in the normal cafeteria plan scenario. How does this work? Also, have any of you ever heard of an "expense reduction" consultant?

Thanks,

Christine
