Planning for Tax Season: Form 1095-B

For groups with fully insured plans

Form 1095-B is a health insurance tax form required under the Affordable Care Act. This form reports the time period during which plan members had minimum essential coverage during the prior tax year. If your group plan is fully insured, your employees will use this form to file their taxes.

What we’ll be doing

Premera will provide Form 1095-B to your employees, as required.

This form will be distributed to members in January 2024, either through the mail or electronically. Members who sign up for electronic delivery will receive an email notification to retrieve the form from their online member account once it’s available.
