The CHAMP Plan is a cafeteria Plan, which is a tax-advantaged employee benefits program designed to help employees save on healthcare and other eligible expenses. It allows participants to allocate a portion of their pre-tax salary toward approved benefits such as medical expenses, insurance premiums, and dependent care. This structure reduces employees’ taxable income, leading to increased take-home pay and greater financial wellness. For employers, the plan lowers payroll tax obligations, resulting in significant annual savings. Implementing CHAMP Plan can enhance employee satisfaction and retention by offering flexible and customizable benefits. Overall, it represents a strategic, cost-effective way to support both workforce wellbeing and the organization’s bottom line. Multiple counties are offering this plan to their employees. This is an optional benefit for employees.
