New HRA Changes Coming in 2026
The Sound Health & Wellness Trust has made changes to how you can earn funding for your Health Reimbursement Arrangement in 2026.
In order to receive any HRA funding in 2027, you (and your eligible spouse) must complete your annual health assessment. That means, starting in 2026, the health related actions you take throughout the year will only count toward funding your HRA if you complete your health assessment by December 31, 2026. The good news — you can take your health assessment anytime throughout the year!
Plus, there will be new ways to build your balance!
- Take care of your teeth: Earn $100-300 when you complete two dental preventive exams in 15 months (newly eligible participants will only have to get one visit to receive funding).
- Register for an account: Earn $100 when you register for Doctor On Demand for the first-time.
In total, the health related actions you take in 2026 can allow you to earn up to $500 for employee-only coverage or $1,000* for family coverage, so start planning your HRA funding today.
*Final earned amount depends on the other Health Related Actions you perform in 2026. Must be HRA eligible on January 1, 2027.
