PCORI Fees Are Back Again
Under the ACA, the PCORI fees were scheduled to end in 2019; however, they now have been extended to 2029. This extension was part of the Further Consolidated Appropriation Act of 2020 (the “ACT”) signed by President Trump on December 20, 2019.
The PCORI fee is determined on certain health insurance policies and self-funded plans and the calculation for those plans is based on the average number of covered lives for the plan year multiplied by the applicable rate (dollar amount) as determined by the IRS.
Plan/policy year end date: January 2019 / September 2019
Filing date: July 31, 2020
Rate: $2.45
