How do I purchase a dental and vision plan?
Purchase a dental or vision plan
The employee can shop and enroll in a qualified dental or vision plan on the open market. (Through the state or federal Marketplace, a private insurance website) These plans must be insurance policies- not discount programs or membership plans.
Pay the Premium Out-of-Pocket
The employee pays the monthly premium for the dental or vision plan themselves.
Please note that ICHRA is a reimbursement, not a prepayment. The employee must pay upfront and is reimbursed after submitting proof.
Submit a Reimbursement Request
To get reimbursed, the employee submits documentation through the StretchDollar site.
Required Documentation
- A proof coverage (such as a policy or welcome letter)
- A receipt or invoice showing
- The premium amount
- The date of payment
- The insurer’s name
Received Reimbursement
Once approved, the employee receives tax-free reimbursement for the eligible premium., Reimbursements are typically paid through direct deposit.
Yay, you’re enrolled!
