COTF: One Big Beautiful Bill Act and Employee Benefits

Compliance, Employee Benefits

On this episode of Comply on the Fly, host Karen B unpacks the employee benefits provisions in the newly signed “One Big Beautiful Bill Act” (OBBBA), a sweeping piece of legislation with implications for health savings accounts (HSAs), dependent care FSAs, and Marketplace plan eligibility.

The OBBBA revives and expands key benefits provisions that had expired or been under debate, including first dollar coverage for telehealth, the integration of Direct Primary Care (DPC) arrangements with HSA eligibility, and changes to Marketplace HDHP rules. It also raises the contribution cap for dependent care FSAs starting in 2026.

If you sponsor high-deductible health plans, offer telehealth or direct primary care options, or administer dependent care FSAs, this episode is a must-listen for understanding how the OBBBA could impact your benefit offerings.
