An Act amending the act of March 4, 1971 (P.L.6, No.2), known as the Tax Reform Code of 1971, providing for Small Business Health Care Premiums Contribution Tax Credit.
This bill creates a new tax credit for small businesses in Pennsylvania that help employees pay for health insurance. To qualify, a business must have 50 or fewer employees and contribute up to $1,000 per employee toward premiums for qualified health plans purchased through the state health exchange. The credit is calculated based on the first $1,000 of contributions made for each eligible employee and can be used to reduce the business's state tax liability. Companies claiming the credit must submit a specific application form to the Department of Revenue that includes detailed information about their employees and the insurance providers they hired.
