Naming

Why we say CHOICE Arrangement (formerly ICHRA)

On educational pages we lead with CHOICE Arrangement and note that it was formerly called an ICHRA (Individual Coverage Health Reimbursement Arrangement). That keeps the idea clear for readers who do not live in regulatory acronyms — without hiding the official term.

What “CHOICE” emphasizes

  • Employee choice of individual coverage
  • Employer choice of contribution design and employee groups
  • Broker choice of how to package and service the case

What “formerly ICHRA” preserves

ICHRA remains the familiar regulatory label. We keep it in titles, SEO, and first explanations so searchers and compliance-minded readers can connect the dots.

How DefinedChoice uses both

Product and audience pages talk about defined contribution and the workspace. Learn pages name the arrangement clearly: CHOICE Arrangement (formerly ICHRA).
