The SIMRP Program is a participatory preventive care management program designed to help employees improve their physical and mental health.  This innovative cost savings strategy is made possible by a set of tax codes that are part of the Affordable Care Act (ACA).  The SIMRP Program can save employers a substantial amount of costs by reducing payroll taxes and lowering worker's compensation insurance premiums.  There are also many indirect cost savings that can greatly benefit your organization.

SIMRP Program Tax Codes

Example Of How The SIMRP Program Works

We use a pretax deduction and an untaxed reimbursement to lower the amount of taxes that they employee pays.  We use that tax savings created by the program to pay for the cost of the wellness benefits and insurance benefits.  There is also some left over tax savings that will increase the employees net pay.
