HRA rules regarding paying for health insurance are different than those for an HSA. Health insurance premiums are an HRA qualified medical expense. However, your employer can structure your HRA to have stricter reimbursement criteria than those allowed by the IRS.
Depending on the plan design, expenses that may be reimbursed from the HRA include the following: deductibles, co-payments, co-insurance, prescription medications, vision expenses, dental expenses, and other out-of-pocket health-related expenses.
