The way group health insurance works is that Employer paid premiums for employee medical insurance are deductible by the company whether the coverage is under a group policy or an individual policy. The employee need not report the amount paid by the employer as current income. When an employee pays the premium and is then reimbursed by the employer, the amount received is not included in the employee's gross income.
Benefits paid under the insurance plan, which reimburse the employee for payments made for hospital, surgical or other medical expenses, are not included in the employee's gross income. Group medical plans are an attractive fringe benefit because personally paid medical insurance premiums and medical expenses are only deductible in excess of 7.5% of the taxpayer's adjusted gross income.

What Is the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA)?
In 1996 the federal government passed into law the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA). HIPAA law provides eligible individuals who have recently lost their employer sponsored group health plan the opportunity to purchase health insurance coverage even if they have a preexisting health condition. If you meet the definition of an eligible individual, all health insurance companies who sell individual plans must offer you health insurance regardless of your medical history. This requirement to issue insurance is called "guaranteed issue." You may not be declined coverage based on medical reasons. In order to qualify as an eligible individual you must meet the following conditions:
- Your last health care coverage must have been under an employer sponsored group health plan, which includes COBRA or Cal-COBRA continuation coverage, for at least 18 months. This prior 18-month coverage is referred to as "creditable coverage."
- All available COBRA or Cal-COBRA continuation coverage has been elected and exhausted. If you qualify for COBRA or Cal-COBRA you are required to accept the coverage and continue the coverage for the maximum time period allowed. (When an employer terminates its existing group health plan entirely, COBRA or Cal-COBRA coverage ends and is considered exhausted.)
- You are not eligible under a group health plan, Medicare, Medi-Cal, and/or do not have other health insurance coverage.
- You did not lose your most recent health coverage due to nonpayment of premium or fraud.

The standard Medicare Part B monthly premium will be $110.50 in 2010.
The Medicare Part B premium amounts for 2010 are determined by the Department of Health and Human Services. The premiums paid by beneficiaries enrolled in Medicare Part B cover physician services, outpatient hospital services, certain home health services, durable medical equipment and other items. For most beneficiaries, the government pays a substantial portion-about 75 percent-of the Part B standard premium and the beneficiary pays the remainder.
Most beneficiaries will continue to pay the standard premium. Since 2007, higher income beneficiaries have been paying a larger percentage of their Part B premium based on income they reported to the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). In 2010, a small number of beneficiaries with higher incomes (individuals with income exceeding $85,000 and married couples with income exceeding $170,000) will pay a monthly premium equal to 35, 50, 65 or 80 percent of the total cost, depending on what they reported to the IRS. However, the higher premium affects less than 5 percent of Medicare beneficiaries, so most people newly enrolled for Medicare will pay the standard premium without an income-related adjustment. For information on the increase for other income levels, see "Medicare Part B Monthly Premiums in 2010," an FAQ on the Medicare website.
