Health Reimbursement Arrangement (HRA)
An employer-funded arrangement that reimburses employees for qualified medical expenses. Unlike an HSA, only the employer can contribute to an HRA, and the funds can be used for various healthcare costs, such as copayments and deductibles.

Spend-Down (Medicaid)
A process by which individuals who have income above their state’s Medicaid eligibility threshold can still qualify for Medicaid by spending their excess income on medical expenses. Once they spend down to the eligibility level, Medicaid covers remaining healthcare costs.
